Author	Topic: COM Interface documentation broken? (4 messages, Page 1 of 1)
AndrewAMD -Interested User- Posts: 2 Joined: Dec 3, 2020	Posted: Dec 3, 2020 12:56 PM Msg. 1 of 4 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

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

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.
