Re: [Quickfix-developers] There is no space(SOH) between the fields.

[<Zol...@ss...>]

Hi Bin,

I am not sure if anyone got back to you on this.  Since <SOH> is not a
visible character, most *nix utilities do not display it.  Often Windows
based Text editors, automatically replace them with some visible character.

Something that works well in *nix is to pipe the file to tr which is a
translating utility.  Often <SOH> is replaced by the pipe character in
printed FIX messages.  Since this has a special meaning in *nix it has to
be escaped.  Here is the syntax I used to use to view FIX logs in *nix.

tail <logfile> | tr \\001 \|

This basically says to display the last 10 lines of the logfile but replace
the <SOH> (001) charachter with a "|" (124).

Hope this helps.
Zoltan

Hi everyone,

I am a new one over here. A very quick question on the output of the
messages.

I use quickfix running on my linux server(Fedora Core 2). however I
usually like to use SSH to remote access that server from my windows
PC through Putty.
Here is one output message I copied from Putty. As you see, there is
no space (SOH ASCII 0x01) shown between each pair of fields, which
makes reading very uncomfortable.
(8=FIX.
4.29=7135=A34=221249=KEPL52=20070228-22:45:01.33156=ULBRIDGE98=0108=1201
0=054)

I also tried to use another redhat Linux machine to SSH remote access
the server using Redhat's Terminal. This time, the spaces (SOH) are
output, like the following.

(8=FIX.4.2 9=71 35=A 34=2212 49=KEPL 52=20070228-22:45:01.331
56=ULBRIDGE 98=0 108=120 10=054)

I wonder if anyone ever met this problem before. Since I really would
like Putty on Windows can show the spaces(SOH), if anyone knows why,
please let me know.

thank you so much.

Bin
