Codec Generation

If you want to use the encoders and decoders from Artio in order to parse or generate FIX then you should use the CodecGenerationTool. It takes two arguments. The first is the output directory, and the second is the path to the XML dictionary to use to define the variant in use.

Commandline Example

java -cp "fix-gateway-samples/build/libs/artio-samples.jar-${ARTIO-VERSION}-all.jar" \
uk.co.real_logic.artio.dictionary.CodecGenerationTool  \
/path/to/generated-src/directory \ 
src/main/resources/your_fix_dictionary_file.xml

Maven Example

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
    <artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <executions>
        <execution>
            <goals>
                <goal>java</goal>
            </goals>
            <phase>generate-sources</phase>
        </execution>
    </executions>

    <configuration>
        <mainClass>uk.co.real_logic.artio.dictionary.CodecGenerationTool</mainClass>
        <arguments>
            <argument>${project.build.directory}/generated-sources/java</argument>
            <argument>src/main/resources/your_fix_dictionary_file.xml</argument>
        </arguments>
    </configuration>
</plugin>

Gradle Example

task generateCodecs(type: JavaExec) {
    main = 'uk.co.real_logic.artio.dictionary.CodecGenerationTool'
    classpath = sourceSets.main.runtimeClasspath
    args = ['/path/to/generated-src/directory', 'src/main/resources/your_fix_dictionary_file.xml']
    outputs.dir '/path/to/generated-src/directory'
}
