[Quickfix-developers] Could not convert field error

[Manuel L. <lop...@gm...>]

Thanks for your help.  I'm having some trouble getting QuickFix to
run.  I get this error using C# 2008 in Visual Studio:
"QuickFix.ConfigError: Configuration failed: Could not convert field
   at QuickFix.SocketInitiator..ctor(Application application,
MessageStoreFactory factory, SessionSettings settings, MessageFactory
messageFactory)"

Here are the relevant lines (the documentation seems contradictory
over the parameters to SocketInitiator).

           try
            {
                QuickFix.Application qfApp = Qf.GetApp();
                SessionSettings settings = new SessionSettings(QfSettingsFile);
                FileStoreFactory factory = new FileStoreFactory(settings);
                MessageFactory msgFactory = new DefaultMessageFactory();
                SocketInitiator initiator = new SocketInitiator(qfApp,
factory, settings, msgFactory);
                initiator.start();
                initiator.stop();
            }
            catch (ConfigError e)
            {
                Debug.WriteLine(e);
            }
