Hi Vadim Questions about OpenFAST should be asked on the OpenFAST discussion forum: [email protected] However, I do have a comment on your question below.. > It seems that OpenFast when implementing Decimals with separate > operators for mantissa and exponent assigns a separate entry on per > record basis regardless of the dictionary settings. In other words - > even if two records with tags 1 and 2 and fields Price refer to the > same dictionary OpenFast creates four fields - PriceExp_1, PriceMan_1, > PriceExp_2, PriceMan_2. Is this the way Decimals should be > implemented? From the documentation it seems that only PriceExp, > PriceMan should be created. My reading of the FAST spec is that the dictionary key is based on field name only, not tag, so I agree with your interpretation but you should discuss it with Jake on the OpenFAST list to see if he has a different reason for the behavior you are seeing.
