[Quickfixj-users] Question about the GapFill mechanism

[Shamir Y. <sha...@gm...>]

Hi all.

i'm trying to figure out how the mechanizm of the Messages Sequence Numbers
is being synchronized.

i tried the follow :

Scenario 1:
i changed the Acceptor (my Application) Expected messageSequenceNumbers to
be lower than it should be. and than i try to log on.

I've noticed that when it send a GapFill Message so tag 7(BeginSeqNo) is OK,
but tag 16(EndSeqNo) is allways get the value of 999999 . shouldn't it be
the sequenceNumber we have jast got???


 Scenario 2:
i changed the Initiator (Banzai) messageSequenceNumbers to be lower than it
should be (also lower than Acceptor expecting). and than i try to log on.

i noticed that the Acceptor isn't accept the logon request and send back
LogOut Message .(with appropriate 58 tag)
i also noticed that because the Banzai is trying continually to logon so
it's SequenceNumber is increasing until it reachs the number the acceptor
expecting.

My question is :
- is this the way it should work?!?!?
- if not : so how exactly the system get over this problem automaticly (if
at all) after the acceptor "rejected" the initiator Logon request?

Thank u all.
