Re: [Quickfix-users] OrdType out of range for a NewOrder Single

[Grant B. <gbi...@co...>]

FIX 5 uses two DataDictionaries.  One for the transport layer, and one for
application layer.  Thus, your config file needs lines for both
TransportDataDictionary and AppDataDictionary.
See http://quickfixengine.org/quickfix/doc/html/configuration.html

If you're just messing around trying to learn about FIX and QuickFIX, I'd
suggest just using FIX 4.2 or FIX 4.4.  Most counterparties I've worked
with are still using one of those.

If you're planning on using QF on a target counterparty, I'd suggest
learning to use whichever version they're using.
