[Quickfix-developers] JAVA/Linux works, some minor issues

[Chang L. <cl...@gl...>]

Hi there,
 
Just want to give some of my feedback for version 1.3.
 
I downloaded QuickFIX 1.3 and got it to work under RH 8.0 with gcc 3.2.
Compilation is fine however I had to make some changes to get examples
compiled.
 
1.	In CPPTest/Test.h, I have to comment out #if TYPEINFO_IN_STD  &
#endif around using std::type_info; in order to it to be compiled. Maybe
I am missing something here.
2.	The Java version of tradeclient works. However several things: 
*        bin/run_banzai.bat seems to work for windows only, for Linux, I
need to change comma to colon for CLASSPATH (and use export instead set
for bash shell)
*        Case sensitivity & slashes: I had to change new Settings(new
FileInputStream("cfg\\Banzai.cfg")); to new Settings(new
FileInputStream("cfg/banzai.cfg")); in order to run banzai successfully.
If I remember correctly windows also recognizes forward slash.
 
Overall version 1.3 is much improved over 1.2.1 as far as compilation
process is concerned, and I am quite happy that JAVA version works on
Linux! Thanks for the great work.
 
Regards,
