Description

TestRequest should be sent before a Logout is sent (Initiator).
You may not agree this is a bug by the way but perhaps a feature not currently supported but the FIX Protocol recommends the following:-

[1] a TestRequest is sent and a hearbeat is expected to be sent in return
[2] NB No logout is sent until a heartbeat (with the TestRequest ID) is received.
[3] Once receive a logout is sent and waitfor Logout is carried out.
[4] then disconnect is done.

I have seen a question relating to this on the forum but this goes way back
http://quickfix-j.364392.n2.nabble.com/Log-file-rotation-td665743.html

Currently the way the reset() on the Session is done it does not allow you to fire a TestRequest off and wait for the hearbeat.

Any idea guys?

Thanks

I think this would be a good improvement. BTW, the link to the forum thread is wrong. It leads to a discussion about log rotation.
