trying to get working version of TWS C++ API


 

what is the best way/source to get "Template TWS C++ client" to compile?it and put? basic functionality with minor changes in the code? And then?build?on top of it


 

Hi,
do you have problems compiling it ? On which operating system ? Under Windows there should be a project file which you can open with visual studio.? If you compile the testclient it should know where the acutal library is (the source folder)


 

I am happy with any OS where TWS C++ API works -- Windows or Linux.
Are you saying that what IB itself provides (no third party GitHub repo) is good enough?

I am looking for a few test cases to get market data and then submit and cancel a limit order with?configurable parameters
(instrument, limit price etc)?

i downloaded from ? the linux version. If you have windows go with windows because on linux you have to fix an error first get it build.

If the api client is good enough i cant say, because i am currently working on it my self. try to get it build first then try connect it to the trader work station
