Fix library for .NET [closed]

Question

I am looking for a recommendation for a FIX library for .Net (C#).
It should support FIX and possibly FIXML.

I already know of QuickFix, but it has some bugs which I'd like to avoid.

Ideas?

Answer 1

We finally settled on RapidAddition.

The RA–Cub FIX engine is an entry level FIX engine designed to give new entrants an affordable flexibility. RA-Cub provides a smooth upgrade to the RA-Cheetah FIX Engine so transition to a low-latency engine later on, should it be required, is a simple operation, requiring no new Systems Integration effort.

RA-Cub is available both as a .NET/C# FIX Engine and as a Java FIX Engine, with both versions being deployable to multiple environments.

It worked quite well for us.

Best FIX library for .Net (C#) is QuickFIX .You can use it for getting your requirements. If you find some bugs ,then you can post it on QuickFIX forum ,they people solve it without any cost.i am using it for more than 2 years.

VersaFix is also second alternative for you .You can also use it with .Net plateform.It has almost same feature as QuickFIX.You can get source code an others from VersaFIX link.

If you are looking for third party dll(library) ,it depends upon your requirement and subscription types and times.But Onixs has a very good api for your requirement and it is bug free with very good support.

Other third party API for FIX implementation QXFIX from ModulusFE .It is very new FIX engine having all features like support for all updated versions of FIX and FAST.

FIX Antenna is Other alternative for you ,supports all FIX versions and FAST 1.1 without any bug :-) ,good with .Net for fast data transfer on network.

Answer 4

A few factoids for you. The two most performant solutions for .Net are from Rapid addition and Onix.

There is some variance in the functionality offered and the pricing models, you can make your own decision.

Both were very helpful with evaluation code and test cases.
