Re: [Quickfix-developers] Lost Messages?

[Oren M. <or...@qu...>]

A FIX engine won't process any message until all previous messages  
have been processed.  If a message gets "lost", the counterparty will  
not process any of your subsequent messages until the lost messages  
is recovered.  This will generally be done through resend requests  
from them to you.
