Problem with secure export of indicator

[aediaz1]

I don't understand why I get this message up when I try to export just one indicator in "secure mode". I haven't installed the software for extra layer of security, I simply want to hide the code. Any comments are welcome.

Please see attached picture.

Hello,

Thanks for the forum post.

When you export a protected DLL you have to do it from a clean install of NinjaTrader. Which means no unrelated secured DLL's installed.

Otherwise since NinjaTrader cannot tell what references the file you are exporting needs it assumes that all are there if it is needed.

Thank you for the responds. I just tried it on a fresh installed computer and it says exactly the same. I don't understand why this happen nor how this simply task can be so hard.

Would not expect that. If the fresh PC does not have any indicators installed correct?

I have of course installed the indicator I'm going to export. This is correct? Apart from that I have 1 simple indicator that has nothing to do with the indicator installed. Are you saying it could matter?

Hello,

If you go to the control center->my documents->ninjatrader 7->bin->custom folder. Are there any DLL's there that are not NinjaTrader DLLs?

If you go to compile an indicator in the code window, right click on it and select references. Are there references added here?
