Hello,

There's a basic getting started tutorial on codeproject. However, this does
refer to the quickfix c++ wrapper as opposed to the pure .net implementation
of quickfix (Quickfix/n).

http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/145174/Fix-Message-Implementation-using-
QuickFix

However, the only differences required to get it working with the pure .net
quickfix implementation is that instead of having to reference the two DLLs
mentioned in the article (quickfix_net.dll and quickfix_net.message.dll) you
only need to reference the single quickfix.dll that is part of the download.

The only other differences are relatively minor in that it follows c# idioms
(ie interfaces all start with I, methods and properties are all camel cased
(that is OnMessage as opposed to onMessage)).
The list of differences between the .net c++ wrapper for quickfix and the
pure .net implementation can be found here:

Beyond that there are some example applications on the quickfix/n website
itself.

(actually I've just found a codeproject article that seems to be an update
of the previous that just relates to the pure .net implementation

http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/448720/Implementation-of-FIX-messages-fo
r-Fix-sp-and)


anyway, hopefully that should be enough to get you started with a basic fix
client (initiator) and server (acceptor).

Cheers,

Huw
