Re: [Quickfix-developers] JNI library for Linux

[<OM...@th...>]

Joerg,

I recently started working on the linux JNI port.  I put together a
Makefile.am using a sample that was kindly supplied by Alex Hornby.  We
originally thought that gcc had problems with exceptions within shared
objects.  Alex's example showed that this is not necessarily the case.  I
have so far compiled the JNI code under linux and have created a
libquickfix_jni.so file, however I think there are still some linking
issues that need to be resolved.

I would be happy to send out what I have so far (Alex, are you also
interested?), and we can perhaps collaborate on completing the port.

Hello,

we are developing exchange connectivity software running on linux server
machines. The next interface to incorporate is a FIX interface.

Now we are evaluating the QuickFIX engine and it seems to meet our needs
very closely except for one point: the Linux integration.

We would like to use QuickFIX on Linux from a Java application. The Java
interface for QuickFIX is currently available only for Windows.

To get the Java interface running on Linux, we need

1. The libquickfix.a as a shared object library. The documentation says
    that for Linux only a statically linked version is available. Please,
    could anybody point out more details why this is the case? Perhaps
    this problem could be solved with a newer compiler, e.g. GCC 3.0?

2. There is no appropriate Makefile.am to build the libquickfix_jni.so
    for Linux. Could anybody tell us how to change the Makefile.am (and
    the C++ sources for the JNI interface)?

If we can resolve these points with the help from this list, we could
get a working Java FIX application for Linux.

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance.
