Re: [Quickfix-developers] FIXab.XML

[<Bjo...@ub...>]

Thanks Oren,

I will do that. I've already introduced a "ubitrade" header file to store
user defined tags.

By the way, I've added the the enums to the FIX.XML file. BUt I've also
added a comment line
<!-- --> to specify that these are specific entries.
QF didn't like it at all. I got an exception :
<value> does not have enum attribute in field " + name)
(DataDictionary.cpp).

Why is that?

Regards
Bjoern

You don't have to.  The values are there to make their use more
readable in C++ so you can refer to them by their name instead of their
character.  You could define them in either one of these files, or
elsewhere.  Keep in mind if you regenerate, values.h is generated off
of FIX44.xml, so they could disappear from that file.  What I would
probably do though if they are custom enumerations, is create something
like a UbitradeValues.h and stick any of your custom values in there.
That way you have a separate location for all your custom values.  This
file you can keep in your own code base with your project. Then
whenever you upgrade QF you don't have to worry about re-adding those
values by changing or overwriting QF files.
