{{Quickfixn}} Message values

[alancloughley at hotmail.com]

Thanks Lan, yes I have tried that (tested again just now) and it still
returns the CHAR number. So I’m just getting “2” when the order has been
filled.

 

I wonder whether the default return value (char or description) is set
somewhere within the data dictionary? I am using a merged data dictionary to
include the brokers data and trade definitions in one xml doc, I just did it
manually and was pretty careful to make sure there were no duplicates etc.

Hi Alan,

did you already try with 

m.GetString(Tags.OrdStatus) ?

 

Best,

Lan

Hi all,

 

Looking for a bit of advice on getting values from messages. I’ve looked
online but can’t find a solution or info to help me better understand why it
is not working as expected.

 

On my first initiator build I was able to get the field description from a
received message and display that string. For example an Executionreport
message m, I could do; m.Get(new OrdStatus()).getValue().ToString(); and I
would get the string as the field description e.g “FILLED”. On my current
initiator build to a new broker the same method gives me the CHAR value of
the field only, so instead of getting the string “FILLED” I just get “2”.
I’ve tried various different combinations of Get, getVaue, GetString etc but
I cannot get the description string, whatever I try the output is always
“2”. Is there some specific code that I need to use to get the field
description output? Like I said the previous broker connection worked, this
time it does not which I find odd. Both data dictionaries for current and
previous build have the exact same field chars and descriptions listed on
the xml file.

 

Thanks for any help here.
