The user can also assign another name for the configuration file, such as the Engine::FixEngine::init(const std::string& aPropertiesFileName = "") call parameter.

For example:

Engine::FixEngine::init("FE.properties")

EngineRoot

The top of the directory tree under which the Engine's configuration and log files are kept.

DO NOT add a slash at the end of the directory path.

ListenPort

Optional. Port or several ports, delimited by a comma, on which acceptors listen to FIX sessions' incoming connections. 

One incoming port can be used for several sessions. 

The parameter is ignored for the entire application if a listen port is set for a specific session. In this case, another ListenPort parameter (on session level) is used by FIX Engine. 

If the listen port is not set either globally, or for a specific session, FIX Engine will not accept connections. 

LogFileName

Optional. Engine's log file name. If this parameter is commented or empty, LogFileName = "engine.log" as default.

Actually represents the alias for the "Log.Engine.File.Name" parameter. If both parameters are specified simultaneously, then:

• If Log.Engine.Device is not specified, "LogFileName" is used;
• If Log.Engine.Device is specified, "Log.Engine.File.Name" is used;

IncludeProperties

Optional. This parameter defines the list of paths to the auxiliary properties files to be included in the engine.properties file. FIX Antenna C++ also provides the ability to include auxiliary properties files recursively.

Example: IncludeProperties = Engine/conf/engine.properties1

ListenAddress

Optional. The local IP address of the network interface accepting incoming connections.

Default value: 0.0.0.0 - listens to connections at all network interfaces.

LicenseFile

The license file path.

LogDirectory

This property is the path of the directory in which the logs for all incoming (if LogIncomingMessages is set to "true") and outgoing FIX messages are stored.

It is possible to specify a path related to the EngineRoot directory. For example, if LogDirectory is set to "logs", then the real path is /logs. The specified directory must exist.

NumberOfWorkers

A number of threads that serve FIX sessions (heartbeat generation/check, message rejecting, message delay delivering, etc.).

The recommended value is 10. The value must be an integer greater than zero.

OutOfSequenceMessagesStrategy

Optional. This parameter sets a strategy for processing out-of-sequence messages. The details about the strategies can be found here: How to set strategy for processing out-of-sequence messages

Valid values:

• RequestAlways - send resend request with BeginSeqNo (7) = <out-of-sequence message number>, EndSeqNo (16) =0 on any out-of-sequence message
• RequestOnce - send the only resend request on the gap. Duplicates of resend requests for the same interval are not sent
• IgnoreGap - send resend request on gap and process out-of-sequence messages
• Queue - use a temporary queue for storing out-of-sequence messages and process them after the gap is closed

Default value: RequestAlways

OutOfSequenceMessagesStrategy.QueueSize

Optional. The size of the temporary queue for processing out-of-sequence messages (measured in a count of messages). The parameter is used if parameter OutOfSequenceMessagesStrategy=Queue.

Default value: 2000

A queue should be cleared after exceeding the limit of out-of-sequence messages and a new resend request should be sent.

The details about the strategies can be found here: How to set strategy for processing out-of-sequence messages

DictionariesFilesList

This parameter contains a list of names of XML files with extensions of the FIX protocols delimited by semicolon.

AdditionalParsersList

This parameter defines the list of additional (custom) protocols which require registering the corresponding parsers.

When FIX Antenna is started, all dictionaries from DictionariesFilesList are loaded. If dictionaries are standard, predefined standard parsers (like FIX40; FIX41; FIX42; FIX43; FIX44; FIXT11) are created based on them. If any dictionary from DictionariesFilesList is custom, the parser is not automatically created and therefore such parsers should be listed in the AdditionalParsersList parameter.

Format of the value: [UNIQUE_PARSER_NAME@][FIXT_PROTOCOL1:]APP_PROTOCOL1[,APP_PROTOCOL2...], where:

• UNIQUE_PARSER_NAME - optional, name of the parser;
• FIXT_PROTOCOL1 - optional, session protocol. Required if APP_PROTOCOL doesn't contain session messages;
• APP_PROTOCOL1 - required, application protocol;
• APP_PROTOCOL2, ... - optional, list of other application protocols.

Below are examples of possible parsers with the correct format:

• MyFixParser@FIXT11:FIX50SP2,FIX50SP1;
• FIXT11:FIX50SP2,FIX50SP1;
• FIXT11:FIX50SP2;
• FIX44.

Example: AdditionalParsersList = FIX44; FIXT11:FIX50SP2;  FIXT11:FIX50SP2, FIX50SP1; MyFixParser@FIXT11:FIX50SP2,FIX50SP1

Valid values: An integer greater or equal to 100

Default value: 100

Example: MaximumParsersAllowed = 200

CheckVersionOfOutgoingMessages

This parameter is an option whereby the version of the FIX protocol used for the outgoing message is validated against that of the established session.

If set to 'true', then the application must use the same version of the protocol as the established session otherwise occurs the error may be seen on the BL (in the case of configured Managed Queue - in the log file). If set to 'false' then the application-level message will be sent to the counterparty.

The recommended value is 'true'.

Debug.LogSessionExtraParameter

If this property value is true, all session parameters will be printed to the application log file.

BackupDirectory

Relative path to the backup folder.

This folder will be used for message storage files of the backup connections.

Session parameters

To configure a session parameter for a session defined by SenderCompId (49) and TargetCompId (56) the following line should be added to the engine.properties file:

Session.<SenderCompID>/<TargetCompID>.<Parameter> = <value> 

To configure the default session parameter the following line should be added to the engine.properties file:

Session.Default.<Parameter> = <value>

LogonTimeFrame

This parameter sets the time period after which a session is non-gracefully terminated if a response is not received to a first "Logon" message (message type A).

The corresponding Logout message is sent to the counterparty. This value is in seconds. The recommended value is 30 seconds for dedicated connections or private networks. Trading connections via the internet will require calibration. If it is set to "0", then the time period is unlimited. The value must be an integer and not negative.

LogoutTimeFrame

This parameter sets the time period after which a session is automatically terminated if a response is not received to a "Logout message" (message type 5).

This value is in seconds. The recommended value is 10 seconds for dedicated connections or private networks. Trading connections via the internet will require calibration. The value must be an integer greater than 0.

IntradayLogoutTolerance

An option to not reset sequence numbers after Logout.

Valid values:

• true - enables IntradayLogoutTolerance mode
• false - disables IntradayLogoutTolerance mode

If set to true, sequence numbers are not reset after Logout. Logout sender should initiate session recovery by sending Logon message with SeqNum = <last outgoing="" seqnum>=""> + 1; expecting reply Logon with SeqNum = <last incoming="" seqnum>=""> + 1. If a gap is detected, a standard message recovery or gap-filling process takes place.

If set to false, sequence numbers are reset after Logout.

ReasonableTransmissionTime

This parameter specifies the delta (increment) to the Heartbeat interval between a TestRequest message being sent by FIX Engine and a Response Heartbeat being received.

The session attains a "telecommunication failed state" if no Response Heartbeat message is received after the normal Heartbeat interval plus delta. For example, if no message (application or session level) is received during the Heartbeat interval, the engine sends the TestRequest message. If the required Response Heartbeat message is not received during the Heartbeat interval plus Delta, then the session moves to the "Telecommunication link failed" state. This parameter is specified in (Heartbeat Interval/100).

The recommended value is 20%.

ForceSeqNumReset

This parameter controls the ResetSeqNumFlag (141) flag in the Logon (A) messages and allows resolving sequence gaps.

When the mode is ON, the session uses the ResetSeqNumFlag (141) tag in sending/confirming the Logon message and reset sequence numbers for an initiator or an acceptor.

Valid values:

• "0" or "false" - Disable ForceSeqNumReset mode. Do not reset sequence numbers on Logon
• "1" or "true" - Reset sequences at the first session initiation
• "2" - Reset sequences for every Logon

DuplicateResendRequestLimit

This parameter specifies the number of duplicate resend request messages (35=2) that can be received before the Application::OnResendRequestLoop callback is called. This gives the user the option to respond to identical resend requests only once and ignore all other duplicates.

Default value: 2

The following conditions cause the FIX Engine to consider resend requests as duplicates:

• The batch of messages that is to be resent, specified by the interval determined by the tags BeginSeqNo (7) & EndSeqNo (16), is the same
• Resend requests are received while the FIX engine is processing other resend requests

The FIX Standard Protocol recommends responding to every resend request received, which can make engine behavior unstable and lead to unexpected traffic growth.

Responding to every resend request is not the recommended behavior for FIX Antenna C++ products because doing so may lead to an infinite resend loop when one of the counterparties can’t process a batch of messages properly and initiates a resend request for the same batch of messages again and again. By reducing the volume of outgoing messages and duplicate responses, traffic is minimized and applications on both sides are made more stable.

ThirdPartyRoutingIsEnabled

FIX Engine has inbuilt FIX message routing capability and fully supports the "Deliver To On Behalf Of" mechanism as specified by the FIX protocol.

If this parameter is set to "true", the Engine redirects FIX messages automatically to other FIX sessions it maintains if the OnBehalfOfCompID field in the message is defined. If this parameter is set to "false", Engine directs all messages received to the client application.

DelayedProcessing.DeliveryTriesInterval

The value is specified in milliseconds. The value must be an integer greater than 0. This parameter is required only if the DelayedProcessing.MaxDeliveryTries parameter is specified.

DelayedProcessing.MaxDeliveryTries

Optional. This parameter specifies the number of attempts that will be made to deliver an application-level message to the registered client application.

If this value is exceeded then the session will be closed with the logout reason "Application not available".

The recommended value is 10. The value must be an integer and not negative.

Reconnect.Interval

This parameter specifies the time interval between reconnection attempts in order to restore a communications link.

This value is specified in milliseconds (seconds*10-3).

The recommended value is 1000 for dedicated connections and private networks. Internet connections require calibration. The value must be an integer greater than 0.

Reconnect.MaxTries

This parameter specifies the number of attempts to restore the session.

The session is considered as restored if the telecommunication link was restored and the exchange of Logon messages was successful. If it is set to "-1", then the number of attempts is unlimited.

This value is an integer.

MessageTimeToLive

Optional. This parameter sets the time period after which a message rejecting is started while the session doesn't exist.

Value is specified in milliseconds (seconds*10-3), and must be an integer greater than 0.

ResendMessagesBlockSize

This parameter defines how many messages proceed in the block. The value “0” means that all messages will be resent in one block. The value must be an integer and not less than 0.

Default value: 1000

ResetSeqNumAfter24hours

Optional. An option to send a Logon message with the ResetSeqNumFlag set after each 24-hour period of the session's activity to establish a new set of sequence numbers (starting with 1).

Default value: false

OutOfSequenceMessagesStrategy

Optional. This parameter sets a strategy for processing out-of-sequence messages for a specific session.

Valid values:

• RequestAlways - send resend request with BeginSeqNo (7) = <out-of-sequence message number>, EndSeqNo (16) =0 on any out-of-sequence message. ResendRequestBlockSize is not supported (will be used strategy RequestOnce).
• RequestOnce - send resend request on gap (considering  ResendRequestBlockSize parameter). Duplicates of resend requests for the same interval are not sent.
• IgnoreGap - send resend request on gap and process out-of-sequence messages.
• Queue - use a temporary queue for storing out-of-sequence messages and process them after the gap is closed. 

Default value: Engine parameter OutOfSequenceMessagesStrategy

DeliverAppMessagesOutOfOrder

SuppressDoubleResendRequest

OutOfSequenceMessagesStrategy.QueueSize

Optional. The size of the temporary queue for processing out-of-sequence messages (measured in a count of messages). The parameter is used if parameter OutOfSequenceMessagesStrategy=Queue.

Default value: Engine parameter OutOfSequenceMessagesStrategy.QueueSize

A queue should be cleared after exceeding the limit of out-of-sequence messages and a new resend request should be sent.

SocketOpPriority

The mode of how FIX Engine performs the socket Send/Receive operations.

Valid values:

• EVEN (default) - FIX Engine uses the thread pool and share a worker thread among all session with this SocketOpPriority=EVEN
• AGGRESSIVE_SEND - FIX Engine uses a dedicated thread for a session that sends outgoing messages in exceptional cases (if it would block). By default, the current thread is used
• AGGRESSIVE_SEND_ASYNC - FIX Engine uses a dedicated thread for a session that sends all outgoing messages to the queue without trying to send them to the socket first. This mode aims to reduce the time spent on the execution of the session:put method and reduce the impact of slow consumers on the application by parallelizing the socket operations by default. 
• AGGRESSIVE_RECEIVE - FIX Engine uses a dedicated thread for a session that receives incoming messages. The engine constantly polls the data from the socket for achieving the minimum latency (See AggressiveReceiveDelay)
• AGGRESSIVE_SEND_AND_RECEIVE - FIX Engine uses two dedicated threads per session. One for receiving and another for sending messages in exceptional cases (if it would block).

• DIRECT_SEND - FIX Engine uses the current thread for sending if this would block, performs as "EVEN".
