[Quickfix-developers] QuickFIX on Solaris / Forte 5.3 / Roguewave

[Peterson, K. <kri...@rb...>]

Hello,

I have been developing a FIX 4.2 connection to an executing broker using Qu=
ickFIX 1.7.1. As our trading system runs on Solaris/SPARC and is built with=
 SunPRO 5.3 C++ and Roguewave, this has made for an interesting build envir=
onment for building QuickFIX.

I have built QuickFIX on Solaris with GCC 3.4.0, SunPRO 5.3 w/shipped STL a=
nd SunPRO 5.3 w/separate Roguewave STL. All of the builds required edits to=
 configure and Makefile.in files (I did not change autoconf files as I don'=
t have the tools), and the SunPRO 3.3 builds required substantial changes t=
o source files as well.

I'd like to know if anyone else has had any experiences using QuickFIX on S=
olaris and would like to share them. If all goes well, we'd like to use Qui=
ckFIX elsewhere and improve QuickFIX's support for Solaris so that it will =
work out of the box (or tarball as it were).

If there is interest, I would be happy to provide details of what we've don=
e to get QuickFIX working.

Regards,

- Kris
