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

Hi,
The developer who is implementing the C++ server side ( FIX GW) of this change had posted a question about the maximum value allowed for the field according to FIX spec, and the reply he got was that there is no limit. 
https://forum.fixtrading.org/t/what-is-the-largest-allowed-value-for-seqnumber-34-unlimited-32-bit-int-64-bit-int/14507

Sending the value as a string throws a NumberFormatException
