[Quickfix-developers] Creating/Cracking a message from a log file?

[John K. <kam...@gm...>]

Hi, I'm very new to quickfix and although I fully understand how the protoc=
ol
and quickfix work, I'm not completely clear on how the Message and
MessageCracker objects are supposed to be used.

I've got massive log files that contain persisted fix data and I'd like to
use the message object to persist the data to a database. I thought it was
just a matter of splitting the log file into text, and using the
messageCracker to create a QuickFix.Message object from the string, but I'm
yet to get anything working.

Basically i want to be able to create a message object that I can use to ge=
t
data from any field, that is if given a string like
(8=3DFIX.4.4=019=3D141=0135=3DU1=0156=3DRX=0149=3DFEE) etc, I'd like to be =
able to have a
message object that I can then just call getString,getField etc.

Any help will be much appreciated.

Thanks John.
