Re: [Quickfix-developers] config.h missing ?

[<JDD...@th...>]

Unix QuickFIX depends on the autotools set (automake, autoconf, and
libtool) to accomplish its job. Writing a Unix QuickFIX application will
require either utilizing these tools or substituting for them in certain
ways. For example, the config.h that is produced by configure in the
initial compile and install of the library is sufficient for compiling
derived applications, so you do not technically need to use autoconf to
produce it. Similarly, the approaches libtool uses to link applications can
be duplicated by directly using the shell commands it produces.

You would do well to read up on these tools.

Hello,

seems the answer i sent yesterday was beamed away. Lets try again :

Thanks John for your quick answer. In fact I compiled and installed
quickfix
itself without any problems.
AWhat I try to compile now is a few lines of test code which only includes
the quickfix headers :


#include "quickfix/include/FileStore.h"
#include "quickfix/include/SocketInitiator.h"
#include "quickfix/include/SessionSettings.h"
#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
        printf("foo\n");
        return 1;
}


Trying to compile this it ends up in error messages about missing config.h
file.
What configure script do you ment to run ? I cant see the forrest for the
trees.


kind regards
