How do you get repeating groups in a quickfixj message

For a quickfixj message like a trade capture report, it can sometimes have nested repeating group. Take a look at NYSE's trade capture report message on page 10 of their document : https://www.nyse.com/publicdocs/nyse/markets/nyse/NYSE_TRF_Messaging_Spec.pdf

Say if one needs to get a partyID(448), partyIDSource(447) and partyRole(452), how does one do it using Java and the QuickFixJ java api

Getting sides from TradeCaptureReport and reading the party sub group as well and the sub party sub group:

 try {
                if (message.getNoSides() != null) {

                    for (int i = 1, l = message.getNoSides().getValue(); i <= l; i++) {

                        Group group = message.getGroup(i, NoSides.FIELD);
                        if (group != null && group.getField(new Side()) != null) {
                           
                            // read side then other fields: group.getField(new Side()).getValue()));
                            

                            try {
                                // get first party id group
                                Group partiesGroup = group.getGroup(1, NoPartyIDs.FIELD);
                                if (partiesGroup != null && partiesGroup.getField(new PartyID()) != null) {
                                    // read party id: partiesGroup.getField(new PartyID()).getValue() 
                                    try {
                                        // get first sub
                                        Group subPartiesGroup = partiesGroup.getGroup(1, NoPartySubIDs.FIELD);
                                        if (subPartiesGroup != null && subPartiesGroup.getField(new PartySubID()) != null) {
                                          // read sub party id : subPartiesGroup.getField(new PartySubID()).getValue()
                                        }
                                    } catch (FieldNotFound e) {
                                        log.error("Ignored error: ", e);
                                    }
                                }
                            } catch (FieldNotFound e) {
                                log.error("Ignored error: ", e);
                            }

                            
                        }

                    }
                 
                }
            } catch (FieldNotFound e) {
                log.error("Ignored error: ", e);
            }

Getting a 2nd-level-nested is not much different than getting a 1st-level group.

I didn't read your NYSE doc, but I assume that the Parties group is inside of the NoSides group just like in the regular FIX44 spec.

This code would probably work. (I haven't compiled it.) I didn't do any group-count checking, but I think you know that part.

PartyID partyId = new PartyID();

// group
quickfix.fix44.TradeCaptureReport.NoSides sidesGroup = 
  new quickfix.fix44.TradeCaptureReport.NoSides();

// subgroup
quickfix.fix44.TradeCaptureReport.NoSides.NoPartyIDs partyIdsGroup =
  new quickfix.fix44.TradeCaptureReport.NoSides.NoPartyIDs();

// get first sidesGroup
message.getGroup(1, sidesGroup);

// get first partyIdsGroup out of first sidesGroup
sidesGroup.getGroup(1, partyIdsGroup);
// do something with it...

// get second partyIdsGroup out of first sidesGroup
sidesGroup.getGroup(2, partyIdsGroup);
// do something with it...

// -----
// get second sidesGroup
message.getGroup(2, sidesGroup);

// get first partyIdsGroup out of second sidesGroup
sidesGroup.getGroup(1, partyIdsGroup);

// and so on...
