{{Quickfixn}} Does QuickFIX/N support logging to databases?

[Mike Gatny]

Mark,

Here's a recent example of porting a database store implementation (though
not db log in this case), which gives an idea of the things that need to be
addressed: https://github.com/quickfixgo/quickfix/pull/90/files

Specifically, here's the steps I followed when porting the db store to
qf/go:

   1. Ported the sql scripts that create the db tables (I borrowed these
   almost directly from qf/c++)
   2. Ported the new SessionSettings (I borrowed a blend of the qf/c++ and
   qf/j implementation)
   3. Ported the unit tests. For the qf/go port, I was able to simply reuse
   the existing generic store_test.go suite
   <https://github.com/quickfixgo/quickfix/blob/master/store_test.go> (golang's
   test framework makes this very easy).  It's nicely commented and would make
   a good basis for your unit tests.
   4. Ported the actual impl (again a blend of qf/c++ and qf/j impl) to get
   those tests passing. Examples: JdbcLog
   <https://github.com/quickfix-j/quickfixj/blob/master/quickfixj-core/src/main/java/quickfix/JdbcLog.java>
   , JdbcLogFactory
   <https://github.com/quickfix-j/quickfixj/blob/master/quickfixj-core/src/main/java/quickfix/JdbcLogFactory.java>,
   MySQLStore.cpp
   <https://github.com/quickfix/quickfix/blob/master/src/C%2B%2B/MySQLStore.cpp>
   5. Updated the configuration documentation (i.e. SessionSettings).  You
   can see the correspond qf/go settings here
   <https://www.quickfixgo.org/docs/configuration.html#Storage> and the
   corresponding qf/j settings here
   <https://quickfixj.org/usermanual/2.1.0/usage/configuration.html#Storage>.
   Note that since both are db-agnostic, both provide a setting for choosing
   the desired Driver (e.g. postgres).
