Hi, I thought 32bit C++ API was removed in RFA 8.0 but I see it is back in RFA 8.1. Is that a one-off for MiFID II or a reversal of strategy to allow people more time to upgrade from 32bit to 64bit C++ API?

According to the README file in RFA C++ 8.1.0 package, it is for the MiFID2 regulation.
2. RELEASE OVERVIEW =================== 2.1 Release Purpose [8.1] This release contains both 32 bit and 64 bit libraries with the changes required for the MiFID2 regulation and bug fixes.
Hi, thanks for taking the time to reply, but it doesn't answer the main part of the question which asks whether the reintroduction of 32bit support will a one-off or whether 32bit support is also planned for following releases.
Hello @GregB
Maintenance releases will be made for 32 bit as well as 64 bit libraries when necessary e.g. bug fixes, but no new features will be introduced.
