[Quickfix-users] repeting fields

[J. M. <jul...@pr...>]

In a lot of messsages in the FIX protocol there are sets of tags that might
repeat. How do I do this with quickFix? I've tryed to repet the line that
sets a tag but it didn't work...

ej:
           // TradeDate
            message.setField(new UtcDateOnlyField(75, new
DateTime(2008,05,29)));
            // TradeDate
            message.setField(new UtcDateOnlyField(75, new DateTime(2008, 05,
28)));

I need to repeat this field It just override the field.... how do I performe
this?

Thanks, Julian.

Documentation for Repeating Groups is here:
http://www.quickfixengine.org/quickfix/doc/html/repeating_groups.html

Note that you must use a Data Dictionary in order to use repeating 
groups.  If you need to support a non-standard FIX message that contains 
repeating groups, you'll have to modify the data dictionary accordingly.
