Re: [Quickfix-developers] compile error

[Oren M. <or...@qu...>]

Yeah, it's a strange thing.  This problem doesn't show up in C# or 
managed C++, only VB.NET.  What's even stranger is that 
msg.getHeader().getField(field) works just fine.  I've played around a 
little bit and have come up with a very ugly work around, but I'm going 
to see if I can find the root cause of this.  You are doing the right 
thing, I think the VB.NET compiler is not.  Hopefully I'll find a true 
resolution, but I will make some sort of workaround available 
regardless.
