[Quickfix-developers] Using ResendRequest for recovery purpose

[<reg...@ho...>]

Hi,

I am working on a small FIX client OMS application.
I would like to know if I can use quickfix to implement an "easy" recovery.
That is, instead of persisting the orders into a DB, can I just send a
"ResendRequest" after the FIX logging in order to get all the message which
have been sent since the beggining of the session.

So far it seems to work, if I send a 35=2 to the destination system's FIX
engine I get a replay of all the messages.
However the messages seem to be embedded in reset requests 35=4 which in
turn seems to cause the FIX engine to "ignore them", that is to not process
them in fromApp().
I can see them however in the logs.

Am I missing something obvious?

Thanks,

Regis
