[Quickfix-developers] How to create Message from String in Java

[Mike P. <mic...@ya...>]

The Java API allows you to create a quickfix.Message
from a string but none of the quickfix.fix4?.Message
classes allow that to happen.  I need to be able to
create a FIX version specific Message from a
quickfix.Message.  I guess I could iterate over the
generic Message objects fields and set them in the fix
version specific object but that's not very efficient.

What I'm trying to do is take a FIX message string and
create a Message object from it and then pass it to a
cracker.  

The C++ API allows the creation of a FIX version
specific Message object (FIX4?.Message) from a
FIX::Message object but the Java API doesn't have this
same functionality.

Is there another way to do that?
