I don't know what Bloomberg AIM is.  Is that your application that you have
the source code to?

QF helps you build applications.  It does not provide a FIX tunnel or other
IPC-style way of duct-taping FIX functionality to existing applications.

So if AIM is an app you are maintaining, then you will probably want to
create an Initiator inside that app and integrate the callbacks into your
app's existing functionality somehow.  For reference, look at the example
apps' Main function.

If AIM is *not* your app, then that requires information that I do not have.
