[Quickfix-developers] [repost] Queuing orders before StartTime

[John G. <joh...@wa...>]

Hi there,

I asked a question on Oct 13 (well actually the same in 2 mails) and got
no answers at all which is not usual on this list. I was trying to check
on http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum=quickfix-developers
before reposting but this seems down. I also find the list to have very 
little activity these days, is anything wrong with lists.sourceforge/my 
isp-email provider ?

Please accept my apologies if this as been debated, in which case I'd love
to have access to the answers (is there any other archive ?)

Question was : if I send orders to QF before StartTime, it seems they are 
never sent when the connection is up at StartTime. It seems to me as a 
side effect of two behaviors :

1) (Quote from Oren) 
> I believe that now when there is activity outside of the session time,

This is logical for an ACCEPTOR, but is both pointless (and with side 
effects) for an INITIATOR.

2) as we depend on the counterparty to detect unsent messages, if the 
sequence numbers are not incremented, the orders are never sent. 

Could you guys confirm/infirm I understand correctly how QF works ?

TIA
Sincerely,
JG
