[Quickfix-developers] problems with quickfix-1.4.1 - Java code

[Mike H. <mi...@an...>]

Hi All,

we've found a couple of 'features' with the new release:

(1) trying to (java) compile an application that cracks FIX4.3 messages
(in Java) with quickfix 1.4.1 is slightly broken due to some missing
throw specifiers in the socket initiator/acceptor classes (see Socket
Acceptor, Initiator diff's below)

(2) when calling the onRun() method, we get a crash in the native code
due to some Exceptions not being initialised correctly. we've disabled
the exception catching in this method to get things working again (see
JavaApplication.ccp diffs below).

The crash occurs when creating an Exception on the stack - the stack
trace shows a class not found type of error - however jar -tvf on
quickfix.jar shows the Exception class DoNotSend is there and available.

Any ideas ??

Cheers
Mike

heres the stack trace:
