Re: [Quickfixj-users] Loading Custom Data Dictionary

[Christoph J. <chr...@ma...>]

Hi,

you can also pass a CLASSPATH resource.
I don't know Weblogic but I guess there is a lib-directory somewhere. If you put the dictionary into 
lib and lib is in the classpath then specifying the filename only should work.

Best regards,
Chris.
