 In case some of you were interested.

Thanks

I would add the following to the response you received on this question. 
Let's assume you want to use the QuickFix log and have it log to a file:


?


1) Use the FileLogFactory as in the following:


?


FIX::SessionSettings settings ( config );


FIX::FileLogFactory logFactory ( settings );


?


initiator = FIX::SocketInitiator(application, storeFactory, settings, 
logFactory);


?


2) Set your configuration file as in the following:


?


FileLogPath=log


?


The FileLogPath allows you to specify the path to the directory?that 
the log files will be in. In the above example, the name of the directory will 
be "log" and since there was no path specified (i.e. c:\mylocation\log), the 
location of the "log" directory will default to the start in directory I 
believe.


?


I hope this helps

As you can see, the tradeclient example 
  uses ScreenLogFactory which create
ScreenLog object. You can either 
  redirect the output to a file, change the
std::cout in ScreenLog, or write 
  your own Log class.

Hi Ned,

Totally agree with your advice. Actually I'm not the person starting this thread. Probably you should reply to the whole email list to let others know. Could you please try to answer other questions as well?


Thanks,
Derek
