[Quickfix-developers] How does Resending messages work?

[Fervus <JL...@ge...>]

I understand that quickfix will automatically handle requesting missing
messages, what I want to know is how does it handle this?

Does it store the messages after the missing message and then process them
after receiving the missing message? Or does it just throw it away and
request all the messages again?  Or some other way entirely? How long back
will go looking for lost messages or if I was sending out messages and I get
a resend request but it was a market order is there a way to intercept that
message and decide whether I want to really resend that message or not?

I have looked through the code and these forums and can not find anything
that tells me this. I am only curious because I do not want to just use some
system and then if it fails for some reason or I need to adjust how I handle
missing/lost messages I understand how my adjustments will effect QuickFix
and my FIX messaging system.

Thanks
Josh
