Re: [Quickfixj-users] How to set order type??

[Toli K. <to...@ma...>]

Mohammad,

The log file you've attached doesn't show the same errors that you
mentioned, only errors about MsgSeqNum resets.

Your message looks almost right:
> >             Date date=new Date();
> >             NewOrderSingle order = new NewOrderSingle();
> >             order.setField(new MsgType("D"));
you don't need this - creating a NewOrderSignle sets the MsgType
already. Also, you need to set it in the header:
order.getHeader().setField(new MsgType(MsgType.ORDER_SINGLE));

> >             order.setField(new HandlInst('2'));
> >             order.setField(new HeartBtInt(30));
> >             order.setField(new BeginString("FIX.4.2"));
> >             order.setField(new SenderCompID("client1"));
> >             order.setField(new TargetCompID("ifkaar"));
These also need to go into the message header:
 order.getHeader().setField(new SenderCompID("client1"));
 order.getHeader().setField(new TargetCompID("ifkaar"));

> >             order.setField(new OrdType(OrdType.LIMIT));
> >             order.setField(new ClOrdID("clor"));
> >             order.setField(new Symbol("symbol"));
> >             order.setField(new Side('c'));

Looking at Side class, i'm not seeing anything with the 'c' value. Is
this a typo or are you setting some custom value? There's
Side.OPPOSITE but that's an upper-case 'C'

> >             order.setField(new TransactTime(date));
> >             order.setField(new Text("New Order"));
> >             Session.sendToTarget(order,"sender","target");

Your senderCompID and targetCompID should match between what you've
set in the message and what you pass to the sendToTarget() function.
currently, they don't.

I was able to take the above code and send it through, didn't have any
problems with ClOrdID or Side fields.

Again, the attached logs didn't show anything so you'll need to send
me the right logs.

good luck.
