Finance-InteractiveBrokers-TWS This module lets you communicate with InteractiveBroker's (IB) Trader's Work Station (TWS), using Perl. This is accomplished by wrapping the Java API that IB provides in Perl using Inline::Java. Since we are using the Java API provided by IB, all functionality is available. IB uses an event based model for communicating with the TWS, that is once you've connected TWS will send messages (events) that you need to handle in your code. PREREQUISTES * TWS installed and running somewhere upon your network * Java JDK/JRE version >= 1.5 installed locally - if you have less there is a workaround. * TWS Java API provided by IB installed locally (see: http://www.interactivebrokers.com/cgi-pub/unix_standalone_api.pl) * You must compile the Java source files in the API to Java class files $ cd /the/location/of/IBJts/java/com/ib/client/ $ javac *.java * Inline::Java installed INSTALLATION To install this module, run the following commands: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install Alternatively, to install with Module::Build, you can use the following commands: perl Build.PL ./Build ./Build test ./Build install DEPENDENCIES TWS Gui TWS Java API Inline Inline::Java Class::InsideOut File::Spec COPYRIGHT AND LICENCE Copyright (C) 2006, Jay Strauss This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself.
