Add support for FIX 4.4 #9

Closed talaniz closed 7 years ago

talaniz commented 7 years ago

4.2 is quite common, but I notice in the tests that there doesn't seem to be any mention of version 4.4. I understand that this is a simple version, but even my employer now requires 4.4 as do many liquidity providers.

I think the current code should work for version 4.0 or later (including 5.0sp2 + extensions). Did you find a problem trying to use 4.4 ?

Antonio, I'm closing this because I think FIX.4.4 is fully supported. There are a few of the test cases that use FIX.4.4 in the BeginString, and I know of no reason it won't work 100%.

If you run into a specific problem, please open an issue for that.

Thanks!
