Hi Charles, I would have to agree with other posters here that QuickFIX/C++, for all intents and purposes seems to be pretty stagnant. The same cannot be said for QuickFIX/J, which appears to have both a very active user community and development team. Are you looking for an OSS solution for a specific language? If you are doing anything with .NET/C#, you might consider taking a look at the open-source FIX engine my company has released - it's called VersaFix and can be found at: http://www.sourceforge.net/project/versafix We also have a local resource page for the project at our corporate site, which is at: http://www.assimilate.com/Products/VersaFix If you are not targeting .NET, I would highly recommend that you consider QuickFIX/J instead of QuickFIX/C++. The reason for this is that the folks that are running the QF/J project are putting work into ensuring that it stays current with the FIX protocol, while the QF/C++ project doesn't provide out of the box support for versions of FIX that are later than 4.4. If you just need a point solution for a version of FIX before FIX 5.0, you are still quite safe with QF/C++.
