What am I doing wrong? Standard include errors

och 2014.09.26 17:36

Hello,

Since April 2011 I opened 5 ticket on the service desk.

None of them did receive any kind of response. I am not talking about solution, just answer.

Should I also post somewhere to have those tickets read?

The last one is about new release. Each time MQ release a new version, it comes with some mqh in include folder. 3 of them did not compile because of an issue I report in the last ticket :

Is there anyone having the same issue, is there something I am doing wrong?

Hello,

Since April 2011 I opened 5 ticket on the service desk.

None of them did receive any kind of response. I am not talking about solution, just answer.

Should I also post somewhere to have those tickets read?

The last one is about new release. Each time MQ release a new version, it comes with some mqh in include folder. 3 of them did not compile because of an issue I report in the last ticket :

Is there anyone having the same issue, is there something I am doing wrong?

They do not reply recently to messages.

The easiest solution is - when you like some code from their library - copy it to some personal folder, and fix it by yourself. Fixing it in original location is waste of time, as they get replaced with every new release. Posting messages to service desk is also waste of time, as the priority of such code fix would be low.

I tried to delete all those "standard" libraries, but they keep reappearing with every new update, like influenza.
