[Quickfix-users] Keep initiator alive?

[Richard H. <rh...@pe...>]

Hi all.

I have written a client-server arrangement, where the server has the Fix connection to the exchange.  My customer is finding it onerous to start the server before he starts his clients.  I would like to start the server using crontab before he starts for the day, and shut it down after he goes home.

My question is, can I call initiator.start() and have it hang there until the exchange opens up and makes its connections?  Or will it discover that the exchange is not there, and close down, so when my user arrives, his server isn't running?


                Regards,

                Rick
