Demonstrate the capability of switching between FIX and AMQP protocols

You will need the sample FIX blotter that comes with Quickfix/J (Banzai). Configure the blotter to establish sessions with Synapse. (refer FIX setup guide for details)
Configure the AMQP transport for Synapse. See Configure Synapse for AMQP Transport setup for detail
To get an idea about the various transport parameters being used in this sample see FIX Transport Parameters .

Start the AMQP consumer, by switching to samples/axis2Client directory and running the consumer using the following command. Consumer will listen to the queue 'QpidStockQuoteService', accept the orders and reply to the queue 'replyQueue'.

ant amqpconsumer -Dpropfile=$SYNAPSE_HOME/repository/conf/sample/resources/fix/direct.properties

Open up the SYNAPSE_HOME/repository/conf/sample/synapse_sample_260.xml file and make sure that the transport.fix.AcceptorConfigURL property points to the fix-synapse.cfg file you created. Once done you can start the Synapse configuration numbered 260: i.e. synapse -sample 260. Note that Synapse creates a new FIX session with Banzai at this point.

Send an order request from Banzai to Synapse. e.g. Buy DELL 1000 @ MKT.

Synapse will forward the order request by binding it to a JMS message payload and sending it to the AMQP consumer. AMQP consumer will send a execution back to Banzai.
