Thanks.  Am I correct in assuming therefore that I don't need to re-generate
the java source code after I've modified the XML file since I am sending
NewOrderSingle messages but not receiving them?  If I don't generate the
java source code and recompile QuickFIX then how do I create a
NewOrderSingle with these fields??

Hi, 

The fields mention you have not included in FIX4.2. So what you need to do
is add those tags to 4.2 spec. (FIX42.xml) probably you can find this file
inside your spec folder. 
Nik you don't need to modify QF code. Once you added those fields to 4.2
spec you can simply use it. 

If your counterparty not cares about these tags then define following line
in their session config file. 

[SESSION] 
BeginString=FIX.4.2 
SenderCompID=BKK 
TargetCompID=AX1 
DataDictionary=../spec/FIX42.xml 
ValidateUserDefinedFields=N 

BR, 

Eranga

Subject: [Quickfix-developers] Adding Custom Fields to NewOrderSinglemessage
(FIX4.2) 

I'm using QuickFIX 1.11.0 for Java and have a question related to adding
custom fields to the FIX4.2 NewOrderSingle message, to enable me to send
multi-leg orders to my counterparty.  These fields exist in FIX4.4. 

Repeating Group Name        Field Number 
NoLegs                        555 

Repeating Group Member        Field Number 
LegSymbol                        600 
LegCFICode                        608 
LegMaturityMonthYear                610 
LegRatioQty                        623 
LegSide                        624 

Do I simply need to add these fields to the Data Dictionary in order to be
able to send NewOrderSingle messages with, or without, these new fields?  Or
do I need to modify the QuickFix code in some way?  I guess I'm after the
safest way to be able to send messages that may or may not have these fields
defined during a particular fix session with our counterparty. 

Thanks.

Nik
