Re: [Quickfix-users] Perl bindings

[Oren M. <or...@qu...>]

Well we already have python bindings which were generated by swig.  The 
interface file is quickfix/src/python/quickfix.i directory.  You can 
probably use that to get started.  There is some python specific code 
in there for exception handling, so you that will need to be rewritten 
for perl, but everything else should work.  You can probably just pull 
that code out to get something running, though thrown exceptions will 
crash the interpreter.

Also, I had spent some time on the swig mailing list and they made 
several changes to accommodate some of the features used by QuickFIX.  
You will want to pull swig from CVS and use that.  The newest release 
version will not work.
