Re: [Quickfix-developers] Generate script broken for c++?

[Asher N. <ash...@gm...>]

Apologies for the typo - clearly the errors occur after I run the
generate.sh script in the spec directory, not the configure script.

Thanks

Hi All,

I'm attempting to make some very simple changes to the FIX field
definitions in Quickfix, but the generate.sh script seems to be producing
invalid code.

I have no problem compiling and using the source code directly from the
repo (bootstrap, configure, make).

However, if I first run the configure.sh script in the spec directory, I
receive errors on a subsequent build because the xsl seems to insert 'bad'
characters into the code. This is prior to me making any changes. Diff on a
couple files as follows:

Any ideas why the brackets and quotations marks are being generated? Any
ideas what I can do to sort this out?

I'd very much appreciate any insight anyone can offer, as I'm not eager to
go spelunking through the XSL.

Regards,

Asher
