SWIFT message parsing for .NET
.net, api, swift-mt
Solution
We ended up with writing our own. There were several reasons for that:
- original SWIFT messages are fixed width and well documented, which makes them easy to handle
- new SWIFT messages are XML based, even easier to handle
- we needed only to parse and produce several message types
- we could fit it into our integration framework
So, in my opinion it really depends how many different message types you need to handle. If only a handful - it would not take much to code own parser.
Problem
Can anyone recommend .NET APIs for SWIFT message parsing and provide pros/cons? Something like this http://www.anasys.com/products/messageobjects/ which I found so far. Thanks for any replies.
