How to generate message classes from a new custom FIX dictionary

I have never tried this myself, but if you download the source you will find a file generate.sh

inside the "spec" directory that contains the following:

./generate_c++.sh
./generate_net.sh
ruby Generator.rb

      

        
        
        
      

    

The first script just calls a bunch of commands xsltproc

to generate values ​​and message dispatch logic (aka cracker). But most generations are done using a Generator.rb

script (the main logic for C ++ is in GeneratorCPP.rb

). So you need to modify the existing XML spec file, for example FIX42.xml

, start the generator and generate the source code.
