Re: [Quickfix-users] Visual C++ build problems: 'ole2.h'

[Shaun A. <Sh...@Ab...>]

Hi Oren,
Many thanks for passing on the binary release. I have ordered a copy of =
Visual Studio .Net so I will hopefully be able to build it myself soon, =
but your version has helped me a lot until then.

The following are my observations from my limited use of the build so =
far:

1.
When you run Executor (Java version) with an incomplete cfg file, it can =
cause a Virtual Machine abort, rather than a useful error message. See =
attached hs_err_pid3304.log log file for details. Don't think this is a =
huge deal since it does work fine with a sensible cfg file. This may be =
the same problem as listed here =
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=3D4325589&forum_id=
=3D103.

2.
When I have Executor and Banzai running and connected to each other, =
when I try to submit an order, I always get an error about tag58 (Text) =
being out of range, e.g.

<20040705-14:41:29, FIX.4.0:CLIENT1->TW, incoming>
  =
(8=3DFIX.4.0=E2=98=BA9=3D107=E2=98=BA35=3D3=E2=98=BA34=3D115=E2=98=BA49=3D=
TW=E2=98=BA52=3D20040705-14:41:29=E2=98=BA56=3DCLIENT1=E2=98=BA45=3D468=E2=
=98=BA58=3DValue is incorrect (out of range) for this =
tag=E2=98=BA10=3D153=E2=98=BA)

Not sure how useful this feedback is, but if I come across anything else =
I'll let you know. Thanks again for your help...

Shaun

    Hi,
    I am a Java developer very keen to get to learn more about Quickfix, =
but really struggling to get it built. My C++ knowledge is very limited, =
so excuse me is this is a stupid question. I am trying to build it on =
WinXP Pro using Microsoft Visual C++ (2005 Express Edition Beta - i.e. =
the free version, I don't have access to the full Visual Studio), but I =
keep getting the following error message:
    =20

    fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'ole2.h': No such file =

    Has anyone else tried building Quickfix with VC++ Express, or have =
any ides on how to get rid of this problem? Any suggestions greatly =
appreciated.

    PS Will there ever be a time when built, rather than source only,  =
versions are available for download?
