Re: [Quickfix-developers] Market Data Request

[mr a. <mr...@gm...>]

Oren-

That sounds good.  Now the question is if I get two requests from our OMS (1
requesting Market Data and 1 order submission), and I send them both out (1
through the Market Data session and 1 through the Order Management session),
would quickfix use two 'threads' to handle both requests OR should I create
a separate application to handle Market Data Requests/Responses that works
on its own thread?

thanks!
