[Quickfix-developers] QuickFIX, java and threads - added blockingStart() to SocketAcceptor

[Alex H. <al...@an...>]

Hi,

On my platform (redhat 8,  gcc 3.2, sun jdk 1.4.1_02) I'm still getting
thread crashes if threads are spawned outside java (perhaps a thread
local storage problem in the JVM?).

So as to not affect the behaviour of the existing start() method,
instead of modifying start(), I have added a blockingStart() method to
the SocketAcceptor.

This fixes my crash bug, and may also be useful to people that want to
handle FIX messages in the main thread (e.g. if FIX is all the
application does....)

ChangeLog follows.

Cheers,
Alex.
