QuickFix/n changing the datadictionary

Question

I am trying to add some fields to the DataDictionary as per the documentation but cant find the DataDictionary.xml file. does nayone know where it can be found

It should normally be in the form `FIX.xml`, e.g. `FIX42.XML` for FIX version 4.2. At least that's the case in QuickFIX/J, but it should be named similarly with any luck. — TT., Aug 01 '18 at 15:46

It should reside in your project Folder under packages\QuickFix.Net.1.8.0\spec\ (assuming you have installed QuickFix/N via Nuget). Or otherwise have a search for FIX*.XML

If you are using the original version of QuickFix/n from Connamara, then all data dictionary XML files are available in: quickfixn/spec/fix/ named FIX<version>.xml, as correctly written in earlier replies.

Also notice, that you need to explicitly specify dictionary file location when creating Acceptor or Initiator: SessionSettings settings = new SessionSettings(<XML file>);

so in your project you may copy the XML file (for the version you are using) wherever you need, edit it and specify its location in the above code line.
