    Having Issue with NxCore C++ Program ran with WINE

    If Wine "works" like Windows then it will look for dll in the directory where your executable resides in addition to regular dll repositories in the windows system folders. Try to grab that MSVCR90.dll and copy it there. It still might not work because of other issues like 64bit vs 32bit binary...

    Having Issue with NxCore C++ Program ran with WINE

    There is a difference how dynamic linking is done on Linux (g++) vs Windows (vc). Linux has more relaxed way of checking and linking symbols from dynamic libraries at compile and link time. Program compiles and links "trusting" that this or another process will have this particular dll loaded...

    [Need Advise] Language for strategy development (R, Python or VB.NET)

    My opinion on C# and .Net itself did not change so I am expressing the same but it could be that it was discussed in a different context.

    so with all the dirt coming out on HFT

    No I am not defending HFT. HFT is the least of markets problems and that is why there is so much noise about it to cover real issues. There is a bigger fish hiding somewhere just to name few like naked shorting, lack of proper tracking of shares and trades by market makers, order...

    Anyone else concerned by DirectEdge tagging orders as RETAIL?

    This shows that posted quotes on the exchanges are only place holders not meant for execution; easy to manipulate and in waiting for unsuspecting passer by. Out of principle only members of the exchange are allowed to trade. Their "jackets" should be clearly marked at all times. They execute...

    And who will check that these are true Retail orders? It seems like big boys are afraid to trade with each other. I have a problem with this because they make it official - Us and They and creates inequality in market place.

    At least OP is clear that he wants the source code as part of the deal. Releasing proprietary code in any form does not guarantee that it will not be reverse engineered. It is only a matter of proper tools, time and money. Of course there are tools to make it more difficult but not impossible.
