Broker plug-in sample *.cpp files

Broker plug-in sample *.cpp files - 10/08/17 21:50

It is stated in the manual that:
Quote:
The C++ source code of a broker plugin can be found in Zorro's Source folder, and used as a 'template' for writing your own broker DLL.
and
Quote:
Example: see source/FXCMplugin.cpp


However, I found no such *.cpp files upon installation.

Can anyone please share?

I don’t know why FXCM plugin source is gone.

But you do have the source for the Ally Invest plugin.

The FXCM plugin source was outdated and did not work anymore since they have changed their protocol. But if you want it I can upload it here.

Yes, please. The manual also references a broker.cpp (as a template). So, please, provide both, if possible.

Hey jcl, the link to the FXCM plugin source code is broken. Could you please provide a working link? Thanks

I have removed that file some years ago because it was hopelessly outdated. I still have it somewhere, but it's useless. Better use the more recent examples in the Zorro source folder.

Just to make sure, it was NOT the FXCM plugin code. It was the code of a prior FXCM API that is long dead and not anymore supported by FXCM.
