[Quickfix-developers] Empty enum values in Specs file

[Sameh H. <sam...@gm...>]

Hi,

I use FIX 4.2 to connect to DIFX exchange, and they send me the following
message:

(8=FIX.4.2
?9=340?35=U0002?34=1357?49=1?56=XXXXXXX?52=20071114-13:42:05?48=AED
FX0000085?22=4?55=DFX8 ?30=438?9342=
NM?9918=02?9298=01?9262=318000000000931?32=
1?268=3?269=2?270=59.600?269=7?270=59.750?269=8?270=59.600
?9150=00000000?9151=00
000000?14=307?9152=-0.251?9000=2?9001=2?9355=0?9357=1?9347= ?9348=
?9356=-?9924=
23?9002=NM?60=20071114-13:42:05?9166=B?10=057?)<qui...@li...>
although tag 9347 is defined in the FIX42.xml as:

<field number="*9347*" name="*OrigOrdTypeBuy*" type="*CHAR*">  * * <value
enum="*A*" description="*OTHER_ORDERS*" />
 * * <value enum=" **" description="*NOT_SIGNIFICANT*" />
   </field>

and the enum value is defined but the message is still rejected
(Message 1357 Rejected: Value is incorrect (out of range) for this tag:9347)

it seems that enum can't be equal to space, is there any way to solve such
problem?
