[Quickfix-users] Storing orders

[Petr J. <ele...@ex...>]

Hi,

I'm new to QuickFIX and I'm still trying to wrap my head around it. I've
followed the C++ example on OrderMatcher and it seems to work fine. But
I do have a couple of questions.

1) When the QuickFIX engine(acceptor side) shuts down(either scheduled
or unscheduled shutdown), all the existing orders disappear.

Does quickfix provide a facility to reload the existing orders, or is
that entirely dependent upon my implementation (ie. I have to do this by
storing it in a database of some sort)

2) This may be a dumb question, but I'm trying to picture a scenario.
What's the point of storing messages (either in file store or in
Postgres). What advantages do I gain by setting PersistOnLogon and/or
PersistMessages to Y.

Thank you,
Petr Janda
