Quickfix读取自定义重复组

Question

I have this sample response that I get from my service provider. They have defined tags which are already defined (I have checked from FIXimate ).

Problem is I am unable to read the repeating group. I create a custom group as

 noIndexRecords = int(message.getField(1828))
 if noIndexRecords > 0:
    group = fix.Group(1828, 1826, )
    message.getGroup(num=1, group=group)

But this shows me a FieldNotFound error. I have made changes to specifications file FIX50SP2.xml as:

Fields added:

<field number='1815' name="OpenIndex" type="PRICE"/>
<field number='1816' name="HighIndex" type="PRICE"/>
<field number='1817' name="LowIndex" type="PRICE"/>

Message Category added:

            <field name="NumberOfRecords" required="N"/>
            <component name="NoIndexRecord" required="N"/>

Component defined as:

<component name="NoIndexRecord">
    <group name='NoIndexRecords' required='N'>
        <field name='IndexName' required='Y'/>
        <field name='SecurityID' required='N'/>
        <field name='OpenIndex' required='N'/>
        <field name='HighIndex' required='N'/>

        <field name='PercentageChange' required='N'/>
        <field name='YearlyHigh' required='N'/>
        <field name='YearlyLow' required='N'/>
        <field name='NetChangeIndicator' required='N'/>
    </group>
</component>

I have gone through different discussions and forums and was unable to find the solution. A similar question goes unanswered .

Any help is appreciated. Thanks

I have made changes to specifications file FIX50SP2.xml

I assume you are referring to the file spec/FIX50SP2.xml of the QuickFIX C++ Fix Engine Library . For that to work, I think you would need to recompile the quickfix-engine . Unless you are forking the QuickFix engine project, that probably isn't what you want.

Try defining your fields like this :

import quickfix

class MarketCapitalizationField(quickfix.DoubleField):
    number = 1820

    def __init__(self, data=None)
        args = (self.number,) if data is None else (self.number, data)
        super(MarketCapitalizationField, self).__init__(*args)

class IndexNameField(quickfix.StringField):
    number = 1826

    def __init__(self, data=None)
        args = (self.number,) if data is None else (self.number, data)
        super(IndexNameField, self).__init__(*args)

class NumberOfRecordsField(quickfix.IntField):
    number = 1828

    def __init__(self, data=None)
        args = (self.number,) if data is None else (self.number, data)
        super(NumberOfRecordsField, self).__init__(*args)

... and then reading your message like this:

noIndexRecords = int(message.getField(NumberOfRecords.number))
for idx in range(1, noIndexRecords+1):
    message.getGroup(i, group)
    group.getField(MarketCapitalizationField.number)
    group.getField(IndexNameField.number)
