Establishing Connection

Establishing Connection

To establish an iLink 3 connection, use the OnixS::CME::iLink3::Session::connect method.

To handle network errors during the connection establishment, one needs to catch OnixS::CME::iLink3::Exceptions::SessionException exceptions from the OnixS::CME::iLink3::Session::connect method and try to connect again.

To disconnect the session, use the OnixS::CME::iLink3::Session::disconnect method.

Example

using namespace OnixS::CME::iLink3;
using namespace OnixS::CME::iLink3::Messaging;

class MyListener : public SessionListener
{
public:
    void onExecutionReportNew(const ExecutionReportNew522& msg, Session* /*sn*/) override
    {
        std::clog << msg << std::endl;
    }
};

const std::string CounterpartyHost = "Localhost";
const int CounterpartyPort = 64124;

SessionSettings settings;

settings.licenseStore("../../license")
    .sessionId("SessionId")
    .secretKey("secretKey")
    .accessKey("accessKey")
    .firmId("firmId");

MyListener listener;

const int MarketSegmentId = 54;
Session session(settings, MarketSegmentId, &listener);

session.connect(CounterpartyHost, CounterpartyPort);

// ...

session.disconnect();
