RE: [Quickfix-users] Standard Header - order of tags.

[Steve B. <sb...@sm...>]

Hi Lars,
=20
The order doesn't matter. If I'm reading your outgoing message
correctly, there is a heartbeat interval field (108) in the header even
though it's not a header field and it precedes tags 49 and 56 which are
header fields. All header fields must precede the body fields. That's
why the message is rejected. It appears you're setting the heartbeat
interval on message.getHeader() instead of message body.

Subject: [Quickfix-users] Standard Header - order of tags.



	When I was testing the quickfix-engine that if I send a message
(this time a logon) where the sender and target id tags don't follow one
another in order quickfix sends a reject message as well as getting a
connection error.=20

	20060220-10:13:02: Created session

	20060220-10:13:02: connection established:
net.gleamynode.netty2.Session@1e04cbf

	20060220-10:13:02: Initiated logon request

	20060220-10:13:02: error while receiving message

	quickfix.SessionException: Tried to send a reject while not
logged on: Tag specified out of required order (field 49)

	            at quickfix.Session.generateReject(Session.java:775)

	=20

	I know that is got a Tried to send a rject while not logged on
but that's beside the point since it say that tag 49 is out of required
order but the FIX protocol only says that 8, 9 and 35 must be the first,
second and third position of the message, then there isn't any order
specified. What is also strange is that it sends an logon replay before
the rejection message as well as terminate the connection.
