[Quickfix-developers] Another repeating group problem

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

Using version 1.4.0 I am having problems correctly reading an incoming
message with repeating groups.  The SecurityList message contains the group:
 

146<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office"
/>

NoRelatedSym

N

Specifies the number of repeating symbols (instruments) specified


-->

component block  <Instrument>

N

Insert here the set of  "Instrument" (symbology) fields defined in "COMMON
COMPONENTS OF APPLICATION MESSAGES"

of the requested Security

...
it seems that when the spec is read in

 
<http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/quickfix/quickfix
/spec/FIX43.xml?rev=1.7#> - <group name="NoRelatedSym" required="N">
  <component name="Instrument" required="N" /> 
  <field name="Currency" required="N" /> ...

the first field in the Instrument component 

<component name="Instrument">
  <field name="Symbol" required="Y" /> 
  <field name="SymbolSfx" required="N" /> 

Symbol, is not taken as being the delimiter, so Currency becomes the
delimiter.
