Steve, Yeah, it looks like this is a parser error. We create these XML specs off of the original specs, and the way messages and fields are represented is very inconsistent all throughout. FIX40 in particular was published as a word document (not even in HTML like 4.1 and 4.2). Most of these parsing problems have been found and eliminated, but they do show up occasionally. The required field should always be an 'N' or a 'Y'. It looks like the names of the fields that follow are somehow being interpreted as the required flag from the original document. This is something we will fix. Unfortunately for FIX4.3 they took 2 steps backward by not only publishing as a word document, but splitting it up into 7 seperate documents that all refer to each other. That make automatically parsing it painfull to say the least! Now if only the fix protocol organization would generate their HTML and Word docs off of our XML format.... --oren |---------+-----------------------------------------------> | | <sb...@ab...> | | | Sent by: | | | qui...@li...| | | ceforge.net | | | | | | | | | 08/23/2002 10:10 AM | | | | |---------+-----------------------------------------------> >----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | | | To: qui...@li... | | cc: | | Subject: [Quickfix-developers] Incorrect group information in FIX4*.xml files? | >----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| Hello, I am trying to use the FIX4*.xml files to generate some code. It appears that the group-related information is incorrect in the XML files. For example, in FIX40.xml the MiscFeeAmt and MiscFeeType "required" attributes contain fields that are unrelated to the group. I'm assuming the "required" attribute is intended to relate the fields to the NoMiscFees. Is that true or am I missing something?
