Hi,

In the "Introduction to IQFeed" page, I'm trying to click on the individual COM Interface names to get their documentation, but all I get is a 404 error.

Is the documentation broken, or is it just me?

Andrew

Where are you going exactly? The more modern protocols don't support the COM interface.

I didn't know that.

Anyways, I already have the sockets up and running, no problem. Thanks.

I should be a little more thorough about the COM interface:

The COM interfaces are end of life, and have been for some time now. We will not make any new code changes to the COM interfaces. They can still be used in the IQFeed API, but we only keep them active to support backwards compatibility. If you're working with an older app that used COM interfaces, they still work, and I can help with any questions about it. But no new development should be done with the COM interfaces.

Sincerely,
Gary Stephen
