Re: [Quickfix-users] [Quickfix-developers] Validate Message......

[Eranga S. <pe...@ri...>]

Thanks Bill,

But my requirement is slight differ. Because my message did not contain
Standard header or tailor tags. I need to validate message without header or
tailor tags. But I think datadictionary validate method need complete
message. 

Is there a way?

BR,
Eranga

Hi Eranga

I do something similiar in my application and the function doing the
check looks as following:

  try
  {
    FIX::DataDictionary dict(p_session.getDataDictionary());
    FIX::Message msg(p_content, dict);
    dict.validate(msg);  // throws if msg not valid
    if(!FIX::Session::sendToTarget( msg ))
      LOG(Warn) << "Message accepted but temporarly unable to
transmit:\n" << p_content;
    return Answer::Ok;
  }
  catch( FIX::SessionNotFound& )
  {
    LOG(Error) << "Session not found";
    return Answer::NotFound;
  }
  catch( FIX::FieldNotFound& e )
  {
    LOG(Error) << "Tag " << e.field << " not found";
    return Answer::BadRequest;
  }
  catch( FIX::TagNotDefinedForMessage& e )
  {
    LOG(Error) << "Tag " << e.field << " not defined for message";
    return Answer::BadRequest;
  }
  catch( FIX::InvalidTagNumber& e )
  {
    LOG(Error) << "Tag " << e.field << " not defined";
    return Answer::BadRequest;
  }
  catch( FIX::IncorrectTagValue& e)
  {
    LOG(Error) << "Value of tag " << e.field << " is incorrect (out of
range)";
    return Answer::BadRequest;
  }
  catch( FIX::RequiredTagMissing& e )
  {
    LOG(Error) << "Required tag " << e.field << " missing";
    return Answer::BadRequest;
  }

Basically in all cases of "BadRequest" I simply give it back to the
originating system, including the text written to LOG(error).

Regards
Robert
