Re: [Quickfix-users] How do resends work?

[John V. <jva...@co...>]

It's pretty standard FIX to have an EndSeqNo be 0 (infinity).  This way, you
don't have to worry about the end, you just specify the beginning.

But since it sounds like CLIENT needs to get everything anyway, maybe
implementing a SERVER method that overloads onLogon to send everything to
the CLIENT automatically is the way to go, instead of forcing the CLIENT to
do a Resend Request.
