[Quickfix-developers] Session reset in quickfix java version

[Timothy Y. <ty...@pa...>]

Session resets do not work correctly in the java version of quickfix; you
typically have to restart the application before a session can be
re-established.

The problem is due to an optimization in FileStore.java and
MemoryStore.java; getCreationDate returns a private copy of the creation
date rather than going to the underlying C++ object.

The solution is to modify the reset() methods of FileStore.java and
MemoryStore.java so they reassign the private creationTime :

    public void reset() throws IOException {
        reset0();
        creationTime = getCreationTime0();
    }
