Description

According to the FIX specs at http://www.btobits.com/fixopaedia/, the CxlType (125) field only exists in FIX.4.0
That field is no longer present in anything from 4.1-4.4

However, the field does show up in FIX41-43.xml files, and as a result the CxlType field that is created uses the definition from FIX43.xml file which doesn't contain the 2 constants that the CxlType field should contain (see http://www.btobits.com/fixopaedia/fixdic40/fd0e-125-3132.html).

I propose to remove the CxlType field definition from the FIX41-43.xml files to comply with the spec.

Perhaps there's some other dependency or backwards compatibility issues that i may be missing?

thoughts?

Hi Toli,

just checked FPL Fiximate. They confirm this.
So removing is OK, I see no issues except somebody uses this
field where he should not.

Cheers, Jörg
