RE: [Quickfix-developers] "Invalid tag number" error for proprietary field

[Yihu F. <Yih...@re...>]

If we are going to have a configuration option to turn on and off validatio=
n of user defined field, it would be perfect.

But until then, this is your short term solution.

Thanks,

Instead of changing the code this could get a configuration option, e.g.

	ValidateUserDefinedFields=3DY (default)
	ValidateUserDefinedMessages=3DY (default)

I wonder what Oren thinks about this.
