[Quickfix-developers] Badly formed messages

[Chris P. <Chr...@BT...>]

If I accidentally do
	FIX::ExecTransType(0)
rather than
	FIX::ExecTransType('0')

there is no complaint from the compiler or at run time.  The net result
seems to be that my message is corrupt when received.  The receiving process
silently discards it because the calculated body length does not match the
stated length.

Is there some sensible way of avoiding this?
