[Quickfix-developers] Empty Tag 58 in Logout request...

[Tom D. <to...@di...>]

This is with QuickFIX/J, checked out of the anonymous repository on 
5/1/2006.

The problem occurred when manually initiating logout by calling 
(Session).logout(), instead of (Session).logout(String).  The result was 
that an empty tag 58 was inserted in the logout message, reflecting the 
empty String in the state object.

So...

I took this code (from Session.generateLogout(String):

    *        if (text != null) {
                logout.setString(Text.FIELD, text);
            }
    *

and modified it to this:

    *        if( (text != null) && (text.length() > 0) ) {
                logout.setString(Text.FIELD, text);
            }
    *

Voila!  The problem is no more...

Tom...
