Re: [Quickfix-developers] Raw message data

[George H. <ge...@so...>]

Andrei,

Thank you for the quick and very helpful reply.

Just as you said, "QuickFIX::Message.toString()" did the trick.

Here is my test code to get a string from a message and back again:


  52 void Application::fromApp( const FIX::Message& message, const  
FIX::SessionID& sessionID )
  53     throw( FIX::FieldNotFound, FIX::IncorrectDataFormat,  
FIX::IncorrectTagValue, FIX::UnsupportedMessageType )
  54 {
  55     struct timeval tv;
  56     struct timezone tz;
  57     struct tm *tm;
  58     std::string RawMessage;
  59     std::string RawMessageXL;
  60
  61     FIX::MsgType msgtype;
  62     FIX::Message quickFixMessage;
  63
  64     crack( message, sessionID );
  65     message.getHeader().getField( msgtype );
  66
  67     gettimeofday(&tv, &tz);
  68     tm=localtime(&tv.tv_sec);
  69     myLog(VERBOSE_L1, "Ticket Incoming: %d:%02d:%02d.%d\n", tm- 
 >tm_hour, tm->tm_min, tm->tm_sec, (int)tv.tv_usec);
  70
  71     //
  72     //
  73         // Here is the "message" -> string -> "message" again
  74         //
  75         message.toString(RawMessage);
  76
  77         myLogV(VERBOSE_L2, "MSG Type: %s\n", msgtype);
  78         myLog(VERBOSE_L2, "Incoming Data:\n\t\t%s\n",  
RawMessage.c_str());
  79         //
  80         //
  81         //
  82         FIX::Session* pSession =  
FIX::Session::lookupSession( sessionID );
  83             FIX::DataDictionary dict;
  84             dict = pSession->getDataDictionary();
  85             try
  86             {
  87                 quickFixMessage = FIX::Message( RawMessage, dict );
  88             }
  89             catch ( std::exception & e )
  90             {
  91                 myLogV(ALWAYS_PRINT, "\"fromApp\" Exception: %s 
\n", e.what());
  92             }
  93             myLogV(ALWAYS_PRINT, "\"XLData\":\n\t\t%s\n",  
quickFixMessage);
...
...


You might as why bother? Well, with the outgoing messages in their  
original format (in a file)
I can replay/resend a bunch of messages (in case of problems).

Again, many thanks,

George
