<p class="MsoNormal"><span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="font-size:13.5pt;color:black;background:white">Does anyone know if there’s a way to set the maximum string length that’s allowed for a tag through the dictionary? I would like to reject
messages back to our counterparty if certain tags are too long. For example, I believe our counterparty could send us a string that’s 100 characters long for the symbol (tag 55) but our database isn’t set up to accept a field that long. For the sake of speed,
I insert the contents of the messages into our database before validating the lengths of the tags. If it’s not possible, I’ll just add a quick check before inserting into the database since my inserts are happening on a separate thread and won’t slow down
the processing of new messages coming in.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
