[Quickfix-developers] RE: I have a question about QF-J

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

Was there an earlier exception that may have caused the session
to not be configured? For example, not finding the dictionary could
have this effect. I write a simple application using your config
file and I got the exception you reported before I changed the
DataDictionary setting to a data dictionary on my local computer.
After that change, the application started with no problem. I'm
not saying the data dictionary setting is the problem on your system.
It could be something else.

The code is written so that an exception during initializing a
particular session will not cause the socket initiator class to 
stop processing other session definitions. If users prefer to have
the socket initiator die if any specific can't be initiated, I'd 
be happy to make that change. Let me know.
