Hi,
we have had an interface in production fail when we try to create a new
message and call .initQuickstart().
What is happening is the id_file is read and the value is coerced into a
number. Unfortunately the code uses an Int (10 chars long, max
value 2147483647) so once the value in the id_file is increased beyond that
limit this error occurs.
Is this a known limitation with using initQuickstart?
We have fixed it by resetting the value in the id_file to 1 (not ideal as
it no longer guarantees uniqueness)
As the MSH-10 is a string up to 20 chars surely this would work with Long
values (19 chars max value: 9223372036854775807)?
To replicate this issue create an id_file in your working dir with value:
2147483600
Then run this code:
Message msg = new ADT_A01();
msg.initQuickstart("ADT","A01", "X");
// throws NumberFormatException
