Re: [Quickfix-users] New User Questions

[McAndrew, P. <pa...@no...>]

Thanks for replying.  I need to set up a test project for my boss to see
how the QuickFix can replace our current (VB6) FIX Handler.  He wants a
service written in .Net C#.  I have all the example code.  Could someone
let me know where I can put the configuration IPs I received from
OpenFix test to implement my application?  I just want to test sending
and receiving items. =20

Also, is there a test interface I can use. =20

I've read the documentation and it seems pretty good but didn't have the
answers to these questions. =20

Thanks, Paige

Quickfix is just an engine/framework for constructing, and receiving
FIX messages you will need to build an application around the
QuickFixEngine API.

Best of luck.
