Nice project - I did not know about it! Thanks!
Major problem in writing a library which implements FIX
protocols is lack of a good XML package. Yes, we have std.xml
but it is far from good, and as we all know, it needs a
replacement.
Also, problem with FIX is that it may become redundant. There
is a lot of criticism about it, and many exchanges decided to
abandon it...
Is XML an issue for FIX? I was under the impression that XML was
used to describe the data/messages, but not so much a requirement
at runtime. Usually message are special character delimited
strings, which D can do well with.
In terms of it becoming redundant, what are some of the new
competitors to it?
Thanks
Dan
