Re: [Quickfixj-users] Adding qualifier to quickfix Message

Hi Toli,

To avoid API changes you could wrap your FIX Message in an object that
has some sort of header for routing info, and a payload for the actual
FIX message.  I'm envisaging something similar to JMS messages. =20

Cheers,

Subject: [Quickfixj-users] Adding qualifier to quickfix Message

Hey guys,

Wanted to ask for advice on the best way to decouple the business
logic from sending logic in quickfixj.

For example, we are trying to use a messaging framework where our
"OrderManager" would drop a completely configured FIX message on a
queue that will then be sent out by another thread.

To send the message, we need to have the FIX message configured with
all the sessionID routing info (sender/targetIDs + beginString +
qualifier).

However, currently it's not possible to set the qualifier on the
Message object itself - there's no setter for that, and we don't want
to invent a custom FIX field to store it in the message itself either.

What would you recommend the best approach to solve this?
A change to the API (adding quickfix.Message.setQualifier() and
changing quickfix.Message.setSessionID to be public instead of
package-protected) would solve our problem, but it's a change to the
API and i'm not sure it's the best approach.

any other ideas/advice?

thanks!
