Re: [Quickfix-developers] SocketInitiator.stop()

Patrick,

You shouldn't be sending you're own logon and logout messages.  QuickFIX =
does this for you.  Instead you should be sending your applications =
logon message in the onLogon callback, which is when the FIX sessions =
have succesfully handshaked.  And when you log off, you should use the =
logoff call instead of sending your own logoff message.

What flag are you refering to?

  Hello,

              There were some recent messages about the =
SocketInitiator::stop() causing a deadlock.  An update was posted in cvs =
where the code has a flag allowing the user to force a close.  The C# =
version of SocketInitiator does not have this same flag and may be =
needed because the SocketInitiator.stop() function deadlocks.  Also, and =
this is real simple, is this correct way to start a fix session?

  =20

  void start(){

  initiator.start();=20

       =20

        //Wait for the FIX.onLogon(Session ) to be signaled.=20

        WaitForConnect(CONNECT_TIMEOUT);

  =20

       //Fix logon     =20

        QuickFix44.Logon fixLogon =3D new Logon();

        fix.Send(fixLogon);    =20

  =20

        //Application Logon

        QuickFix44.UserRequest logon =3D new QuickFix44.UserRequest();

        QuoterParamaters fields =3D new QuoterParamaters(credentials);

        Set(logon, new UserRequestType(UserRequestType.LOGONUSER));//Set =
the logon flag to true

  =20

        fix.Send(logon);

  }

  =20

  =20

  With a corresponding stop:

  =20

  void stop()

  {

        //Application Logoff

        QuickFix44.UserRequest logoff =3D new QuickFix44.UserRequest ();

        Set(logoff,  new UserRequestType(UserRequestType.LOGOFFUSER));

        fix.Send(logoff);

                 =20

        //Fix logoff

        if(fix.LoggedOn)

  {

              QuickFix44.Logout fixLogout =3D new Logout();

              fix.Send(fixLogout);

        }

                       =20

        /**

        * This causes the thread to hang.=20

        * */

  =20

  initiator.stop();

  }

  =20

  Thanks in advance.=20
