Each FIX datatype is already mapped to a field encoding in SBE. To aid mapping to other protocols, each SBE encoding should also be mapped to a semantic type as defined by ISO 11404 General Purpose Datatypes. That standard defines types by their value space, independent of platform and programming language. The purpose of the SBE standard is provide a lexical space for those types for high performance usage.
(Generic type mapping based on ISO 11404 has already been incorporated into the FIXP performance session layer standard, and the recently improved tagvalue encoding standard.)
