Problem with validation or may be bug in QuickFix



Hello all.

I am playing with validation facilities of QuickFix and faced with troubles:

In my FIX message (ExecutionReport) exists one custom field (with tag 7012) with a string “TEST FIELD”.

In configuration file I have following:



[DEFAULT]

ConnectionType=acceptor

SocketAcceptPort=5001

SocketReuseAddress=Y

StartTime=00:00:00

EndTime=00:00:00

UseDataDictionary=Y

HttpAcceptPort=8090

 

[SESSION]

BeginString=FIX.4.3

SenderCompID=EXECUTOR

TargetCompID=CLIENT1

FileStorePath=store

DataDictionary=./FIX43.xml



In FIX43.xml i have added two records: 

1)	one in fields section <field number="7012" name="TestField" type="STRING" />

2)	and one in message (<message name="ExecutionReport" msgtype="8" msgcat="app">) section <field name="TestField" required="N" />



In the program code a do not add class for this field and simply do message.getField(7012);



As a result quickfix reject message with: “Tag not defined for this message type”



What it can be ?
