IQFeed Connection Issue

[aslane]

Ninja has a problem when starting IQFeed if another application has already started IQConnect.exe (started the feed). Ninja does not check if it is already running when an IQFeed connection is started (which is clearly documented how to do in the IQFeed API). So, when Ninja starts IQConnect.exe, a dialog is raised by IQConnect saying "Only one instance of IQConnect is allowed!". Now everything goes on its merry way, but this is an issue that needs to be resolved. I have four different apps that all connect to IQFeed, but Ninja is the only one that causes this issue.

If Ninja is the only app, the dialog is not raised as expected.

aslane, thank you for reporting this.

I saw the same thing, glad it's already been reported. I'd like to add that this does not occur in 6.5, so somehow it got introduced in v7. (I saw it in beta 14.)
