Re: [Quickfix-developers] FIX explicit logon

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

Ah, right, you are correct in that QF does give you limited ability to
alter the admin messages.

It doesn't cleanly give you the option to, say, forgo sending logon
messages or heartbeats, however.  (I mean, I think you can could block them
by throwing DoNotSend exceptions in the toAdmin() callback, but I wouldn't
recommend it.)
