Namespace for conversions between `bdlt` types and their FIX representations&period;

== Synopsis

Declared in `&lt;bdlt&lowbar;fixutil&period;h&gt;`

[source,cpp,subs="verbatim,replacements,macros,-callouts"]
----
struct FixUtil;
----

== Description

This `struct` provides a namespace for a suite of pure functions that perform conversions between objects of `bdlt` vocabulary type and their FIX representations&period; Each `generate` and `generateRaw` method takes a `bdlt` object (of type `Date`, `DateTz`, `Time`, `TimeTz`, `Datetime`, or `DatetimeTz`) and outputs its corresponding FIX representation to a user&hyphen;supplied character buffer or `bsl&colon;&colon;ostream`&period; The `parse` methods effect the opposite conversion in that they populate a `bdlt` object from the result of parsing a FIX representation&period;
