[Quickfix-developers] Capturing Messages With Bad Data

[<Ned...@ao...>]

 
 
To all,
    I have a test application that is reading in  execution reports. On 
occasion, I get an execution report with bad data (i.e.  alpha characters in the 
AvgPx field which I believe is a Incorrect Data Format).  I want to be able to 
capture this message as I do all the other good messages in  the fromApp event; 
however the fromApp event only captures the good  message.
 
    How can I capture messages with an Incorrect Data  Format in a field? 
I've tried including a Try and Catch block where I catch  IncorrectDataFormat, 
but that does not appear to work.
 
Thank you for all your time and efforts
 
Ned

Hi Ned,

I would use the toAdmin to capture the error.

Agreed, you could watch for Reject messages in toAdmin().  If you like, 
you can then dig the offending message out of the MessageStore by its 
sequence number (which will be referenced on the Reject).  Description 
of how to do that here:
