[Quickfix-users] TEST Request messages...

[azmat <mr...@gm...>]

Hello everyone,

Another TEST Request related question.  Essentially I see these messages
throughout my QF event logs.  Everytime I get disconnected from my broker,
it is preceded by a TEST request (35=1) message.  I'd like to know what
exact circumstances causes a 35=1 message to be fired by QuickFIX as an
initiator.  Here is an excerpt from my QF event log.

20101222-18:18:54 : Sent test request TEST
20101222-18:19:12 : Timed out waiting for heartbeat
20101222-18:19:12 : Disconnecting


Also is there a way to entirely disable the sending of these messages?  
I was thinking of deleting these lines from the DataDictionary:

<message name="TestRequest" msgtype="1" msgcat="admin">
  <field name="TestReqID" required="Y" /> 
</message>

Would this be a way to disable TEST request messages?  
Is there any other way, preferably via configurations, that ought to be used
to disable such messages?

thanks!
