> We've recently certified our QuickFIX-based app against CME's iLink / 
AutoCert+.  That required a couple of modifications to QuickFIX, notably:- 
ability to limit resends to a maximum 2500 messages- in-session logon: support 
CME sending a sequence reset response message of sequence number == 1 (when, by 
that time, QuickFIX expects that message to have sequence number == 2)- ability 
to suppress outbound admin messages (i.e. to throw DoNotSend from 
Application::toAdmin() -- this is another part of our workaround for CME's in-
session logon)If you'd be interested, we could contribute this code back to the 
QuickFIX core in the form of a feature request + patch.(I'm checking here first, 
because we'd need to connect all of this to the config system such that people 
could enable/disable these features at will.  Since we know we need them all, we 
simply left them hard-coded. Cheers


I would definitely be interested in seeing iLink support added to quickfix. 
Failing that if you could post your patches somewhere it would at least help 
others facing the same problem.
