[Quickfix-developers] Currency type problems

[Loic G. <loi...@sw...>]

Hi,

I have been having problems using the Currency type in Quickfix
for tags 15 Currency and 120 SettlCurrency for example.
Retrieving the currency from a received message is OK, as
the method getString is there, but setting it does not work for me.

It seems to me that the CurrencyField is wrongly set to be a CharField
and that it should be a StringField as defined in the FIX docs.

in field.h:
typedef CharField FIX::CurrencyField;

should be
typedef StringField   CurrencyField; ???

Is this the case or I am wildly off the mark?
