[Quickfix-users] sequence reset, CME iLink

[QM <eqm...@nw...>]

Hi All,

I'm not new to QuickFIX, but this is my first time setting up QuickFIX for
CME/iLink and weeklong sessions.  The problem I've run into is that my
QuickFIX app sends a logon message with sequence number 1 and the other end
responds:

"Sequence number received lower than expected."

and logs me out.  While the message is indeed true, I can't tell how to
handle this using QuickFIX.  Ideally, I'd want my app to be able to:

1 - send the proper sequence number (e.g., pulled from file, via
PersistMessages and FileStorePath)

2 - if that fails (e.g., the file is missing) then tell the other side that
we want to reset the sequence numbers back to 1

Does QuickFIX have config settings to do option #2?

I've seen some threads online in which the authors mention having modified
QuickFIX, but they're hazy on details.  Someone else posted a patch but
that yields the same behaviour as described above.

I tried this using QuickFIX C++, versions 1.13.3 and svn r2330.

Thank you.
