Repeating Groups

The OnixS.SimpleBinaryEncoding.IGroup interface provides iterator access to repeating group entries. This interface extends OnixS.SimpleBinaryEncoding.IFieldSet interface providing access to the current repeating group entry fields.

Encoding Example

const int PartyDetailsGroupSize = 2;

const int NoPartyDetailsTag = 1671;
const int PartyDetailIDTag = 1691;
const int PartyDetailRoleTag = 1693;

// Set the PartyDetails group size and get the corresponding Group instance.
IGroup details = request.SetGroup(NoPartyDetailsTag, PartyDetailsGroupSize);

// Move to the first entry
details.MoveNext();

// Set field values of the first repeating group entry.
details.SetString(PartyDetailIDTag, "004");
details.SetEnum(PartyDetailRoleTag, PartyDetailRole.ExecutingFirm);

// Move to the second entry
details.MoveNext();

// Set field values of the second repeating group entry.
details.SetString(PartyDetailIDTag, "CSET_TEST");
details.SetEnum(PartyDetailRoleTag, PartyDetailRole.CustomerAccount);

details.Reset();

while (details.MoveNext())
{
    Console.WriteLine($"partyDetailId={details.GetString(PartyDetailIDTag)}; partyDetailRole={details.GetEnum<PartyDetailRole>(PartyDetailRoleTag)}");
}

Decoding Example

var decodedGroup = request.GetGroup(NoPartyDetailsTag);

// group iteration by using MoveNext()
while (decodedGroup.MoveNext())
{
    Console.WriteLine("PartyDetailID = " + decodedGroup.GetString(PartyDetailIDTag));
    Console.WriteLine("PartyDetailRole = " + decodedGroup.GetEnum<PartyDetailRole>(PartyDetailRoleTag));
}

// by GetEnumerator
foreach (var groupEntry in decodedGroup)
{
    Console.WriteLine("PartyDetailID = " + groupEntry.GetString(PartyDetailIDTag));
    Console.WriteLine("PartyDetailRole = " + groupEntry.GetEnum<PartyDetailRole>(PartyDetailRoleTag));
}
