[Quickfix-developers] OrigSendingTime on messages with PossDup=Y

[Steve B. <st...@te...>]

Hello,

I'm working on OpenFIX certification for the pure Java QuickFIX
implementation. One test that's giving me problems involves a
message with PossDup=Y and no OrigSendingTime. I notice that the
session implementation only validates the PossDup-related fields
when when the target sequence number is lower than expected
(doPossDup() is only called from doTargetTooLow()). The OpenFIX
test (FIX 4.2) is sending a message with PossDup=Y and 
a proper sequence number so the PossDup verification code is not 
being called.

It seems a bit strange that PossDup=Y in this scenario (normal
sequence numbers)? Is this a problem with QuickFIX or the
OpenFIX test? Comments?
