Implementing a FAST feed handler

The Sybase RAP Message Handler receives decoded FAST messages and maps them into the RAP Publisher API. The library is compiled into a separate shared library which is dynamically loaded at runtime. The library exposes the symbols for the initialization, finalization, and process routines as C APIs so that they can be loaded from the FAST Feed Handler executable.

The implementation of the Sybase RAP Message Handler for FIX will be provided as a C++ class which is instantiated during the initialize function, a reference to which is stored in the ffh_mh_info structure so that it can be retrieved later during the process and finalize functions.
