Quickfixj bypassing config file and doing it programmatically


Hi guys I am following a tutorial on quickfixj to bypass the config file. basically I don't want to have a txt config file, I want to create my own settings before connecting to FIX, the reason that I am doing this is that I want the user to enter his SendcompID, TargetCompID, Host address and Port address on the GUI before sending the logon.

I have followed this tutorial

here is my code

  SessionSettings settings = new SessionSettings();

        SessionID id1 = new SessionID(new BeginString("FIX.4.4"), new SenderCompID("ManiFX"), new TargetCompID("ALPHA-FIX"), "Session1");
        Dictionary d = new Dictionary();

        d.setString("ConnectionType", "acceptor");
        d.setString("SocketConnectPort", "7403");
        d.setString("SocketConnectHost", "185.79.219.199");
        d.setString("FileLogPath", "C:/Work/QuickFIXJ/logs");
       // d.setString("StartDay", "sunday");
        //d.setString("EndDay", "saturday");
        d.setString("StartTime", "00:00:00");
        d.setString("EndTime", "00:00:00");
        d.setString("FileStorePath", "/Users/renan.gado/workspace/QuickFix/src/Sessioninfo");
        d.setString("UseDataDictionary", "n");
        d.setString("DataDictionary", "FIX44.xml");

        settings.set(id1,d);

        Application application = new QuickFix();
        FileStoreFactory storeFactory = new FileStoreFactory(settings);
        ScreenLogFactory logFactory = new ScreenLogFactory(settings);
        MessageFactory messageFactory = new DefaultMessageFactory();
        SocketInitiator acceptor = new SocketInitiator(application, storeFactory, settings, logFactory, messageFactory);


        acceptor.start();

And I am getting the following error

Can anyone help me to solve this issue?

Thank you.

also if there is a better way to achieve what I am trying to accomplish please share your ideas.


Solution

  • You should be able to get it working purely programmatically, but the first workaround that springs to mind is write code that generates a QuickFix config file and point your various objects at that file in the usual manner.

    The code that writes the file is pretty simple, right - either use a simple template and substitute in what you want to change, or have a series of printlns that generate all of the file in code.
