[Quickfix-developers] What should be done if ResendRequest generated by doTargetTooHigh have never been received or acted upon

[len <le...@fa...>]

Hi,
 
We recently encounter the situation when remote FIX engine seems to ignore
ResendRequest message generated by our QuickFix engine. Unfortunately that
ultimately blocked our running QuickFix engine because remote party was keep
sending messages with higher and higher sequence numbers and QuickFix simply
queue the message and just log ""Already sent ResendRequest FROM:.".
Therefore Application code was not aware about problem and QuickFix did not
try to resolve it.
 
Did anyone have experience with it? What solution should be? I am inclining
to add some time-out check (basically add time when resendRequest was sent
into m_state and resend the message after certain period of time). May be
upcoming QuickFix releases address this problem?
 
Thank you.
