The descriptions which are in the FIX repository 2010 files (for enums, fields, etc) are not in the unified repository file. Could we consider adding them?
@xavierbruyet could you give an example for analysis by posting the XML code from both repositories? If they are not in the unified repository then they are probably also not in FIX Orchestra, the new standard repository format.
I’ve just figured out that the descriptions were in separate phrases.xml files. It would have been more convenient for applications to have everything in a single file.
The idea behind the phrases file was to support a language agnostic repository. You could then have multiple phrases files in different languages, i.e. local versions of FIXimate. However, such a translation project was never realised. The unified repository is now considered legacy and the the new format, FIX Orchestra, is a single file and solves your problem.
