[Quickfix-developers] [Patch] Added support for AMD64 (x64) clean compilation under MSVC 10.0

[Virgilio A. F. <vir...@gm...>]

Hi guys

 

I've managed to patch QuickFIX 1.13.3 to clean build under MSVC 10.0  x64
(not restricted to, all Win64 plataforms can benefit on this).

 

Basic problems are of type:

 

-          Converting from size_t (unsigned 64-bit integers) to int (signed
32-bit integer), just used static_cast<int> when needed;

-          Using socket handles as integers (on Win64, socket handles are
64-bit integers), created a typedef SOCKET socket_t (or int socket_t) and
changed all signatured that store / pass socket handles to use socket_t
type;

 

I want to contribute those changes to quickfix codebase. How can I proceed
on this ?
