Re: [Quickfix-users] RUBY users?

I know there are some others who use it and I've used it for myself  
for some things.  It's a great way to incorporate scripting into your  
trading system.

The most safe methods will not be supported because Ruby is not a  
compiled language, so there is no way for it to warn you about  
setting incorrect fields.  These will be reported at runtime.
