FixAlchemy.GroupParser (FIXAlchemy v0.2.4)

Runtime engine for parsing FIX repeating groups from ordered keyword lists.

Groups in FIX are delimited by the first field in the group definition. Each time the delimiter field reappears, a new group entry begins. Fields not belonging to the group signal the end of the group.

Nested groups are extracted from each entry's ordered fields via recursive descent, so field ordering — which FIX group semantics depend on — is preserved all the way down.
