Re: [Quickfixj-users] spec tags with custom values

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

Robert,

You have a couple of options, in order of difficulty

1. You can disable the validation altogether (UseDataDictionary=N)
which is probably not what you want.

2. you can modify the FIX42.xml file to add the custom field so that
the messages aren't rejected

3. do #2, but save it as a custom file, and specify that as a
DataDictionary=FIX42-custom.xml in your session settings file

4. you can do #3, and re-generate the FIX message classes so that you
get the new constant and use that in your code. It's pretty easy to
do, you just modify the quickfixj/core/src/main/resources/FIX42.xml
file, and run "ant" to regenerate the jars.

hope this helps.
