[Quickfix-developers] TIB enable quickfix

[<in...@ri...>]

HI,

I'm new to quickfix but it looks like a very promising solution to our FI=
X
needs. To be perfect it should have a TIBCO Rendezvous interface to fit
into our architecture. I read in the mailing lists that some of you
where/are working on this possibility. I would like to know if anyone
willing to share some of their code with me or do I need to start from
scratch ?

Thanks,

Richard

Yes, I have discussed a TIBCO interface (TibcoSocketAcceptor and 
TibcoSocketInitiator) with Oren lately, since the Chicago Mercantile 
Exchange (www.cme.com) uses TIBCO and QuickFIX.  Perhaps they give you 
some support in developing an open source TIBCO adapater.

Cheers, Jörg

Joerg,

How do you propose managing the two communication paths - one for
iLINK(tcp sockets) and one for MDAPI(tibco)?

Side note - I'm the developer who implemented the Order Entry Gateway for
the CME's Eurodollar Options System (EOS)
http://www.cme.com/abt/news/04-135EOSforEurodollars8295.html .

We didn't modify one line of QF. We felt it was more than capable of
handling our requirements. Oren and the other developers have done an
excellent job and have been more than responsive to our needs. The week
long sessions are a plus to us and our customers.

I wouldn't want more modifications to be made to QF which were specific t=
o
the CME. QF is an implementation of the FIX protocol not iLINK(GLOBEX),
MDAPI or Tibco for that matter. I'm up for suggestions, but for the
forseeable future the CME is not going to marry their Order Entry Path an=
d
Market Data Path.

Actually, I do not know TIBCO, but Oren told me that somebody at CME --
obviously you -- used TIBCO to exchange FIX messages.

How did you implement sending FIX messages over TIBCO?

I fully agree, but I did not speak about changing QuickFIX, but
providing extra access methods. Probably they would have to be kept
separate from the normal package, since you probably need TIBCO
libraries, header files and stuff to compile such access methods.

In general, I think it would be nice to have such code in a "contrib"
section.

Cheers, Jörg

It's a pub/sub scenario, requests from the clients are trivial. Simply
take the FIX message, wrap it with Tibco parameters, and throw it on the
Tibco bus - verified first of course. Responses from the engine are parsed
for the FIX message and then cracked - sent to the client.

Tibco is a great technology. Coding against their API's is not diffucult.
However setting up the networks and routing multicast is the hard part.

Jon,

Are you willing to share your part in this extension to quickfix. I need 
a tibco-end on this fixengine to make it usefull for me. Now we are 
stuck with big expensive fix engines to do simple things just because 
they have a tib-adapter.

It would be nice (haven't checked yet) isf there where just some 
standaard hooks or functions where one could plugin his/her own 
middleware messaging solution (like j2ee, /net, mq or rendezvous)

Richard,

At this point, I can't divulge anything as of yet. Talks are in the works
to contribute to the QF source tree. Do you have any experience with
Tibco?

Re: [Quickfix-developers] TIB enable quickfix

[Richard <in...@ri...>]

Jon,

Yes I have extensive experience in using TIBCO software from programming 
  TIBCO into Java small programs to full blown Active enterpise 
solutions using Integration manager and Business works. Before Reuters 
put in his weight I used to do the MDDS solutions as well. Why need any 
help ?

On the release of the source, it's not an urgent matter I came along 
this open source fix-engine and decided to have a look and it looks 
mature enough to use in a serious production environment. I'm in favor 
of using open source.

Haven't used yet but will in the future the integration software from 
www.openadapter.org. Also a great opensource project...

Regards,

Richard

[Oren M. <or...@qu...>]

Yeah, QuickFIX and OpenAdapter both had presentations at an SIMC 
conference in New York a while ago.  We chatted with them for a bit 
afterward and talked about a possible collaboration integrating 
QuickFIX with OpenAdapter, but we never followed up on it.
