[Quickfix-users] fromApp() and onMessage() newbie query

[Naveen R. <wri...@re...>]

 =A0=0AHi All. =0A=0AI am new to quickfix. I am using the FIX44-specified q=
uickfix(1.12.4) executor and tradeclient samples for knowing how messages g=
ets communicated from one end to another. =0AThe tradeclient sample uses a =
'NewOrderSingle' request that gets filled at the executor end and returned =
back. I have some queries regarding this behaviour. =0A=0A=0A        - Firs=
tly, when I replaced NewOrderSingle with my one of my own customized messag=
e, the executor's fromApp() never gets called. I want to trace the message =
from within fromapp(). =0A=0A        - Secondly, as soon as the executor re=
ceives a message (like NewOrderSingle), it immediately responds to the clie=
nt with a filling message. From where this response gets generated and more=
over sent back to the client. I have even commented the sendToTarget() in m=
y executor's onMessage(). To my WONDER even if I dont use onMessage() at al=
l still the request received is echoed on the client screen. What is the me=
chanism here I am unable to understand. =0A=0APlease help I can provide mor=
e details on how I am doing. =0A=0A=0AThanks and Regards, =0ANavin =0A=0A
