Re: [Quickfixj-users] Support for UI64 data type

[Kodippili A. A. <as...@ls...>]

Thanks for your responses. To clarify my requirement further, I need to send a ui64 value for the MsgSeqNum field. ( This is due to a system running for several days continuously and the sequence number reaches ui64 values ) . Currently quickfix expects the MsgSeqNum field to be an int. If I send it as a string, an IncorectDataException is thrown. The methods provided by Session class related to sequence number such as getExpectedTargetNum()  and setNextSenderMsgSeqNum also expect the MsgSeqNum field to be an int.

Could quickfix/J be changed to handle the MsgSeqNum as a long value ?



Thanks,
AsankaK

Use String field? There you can send almost anything.
Cheers

Does quickfix/J support unsigned long (UI64) values ? Is there any workaround I could use for this with existing FIeldTypes ?
