Hello strategesis,

Thank you for your inquiry.

To investigate further, can you please provide us your trace files as well?

You will find the trace files on your PC in the (My) Documents > NinjaTrader 8 > Trace folder.

The trace files will be named "trace.20151019.xxxxx.txt" (where the Xs are numerical values, eg. 00001, 00002, etc...)

I recently purchased the SecureTeam code obfuscation utility (the version specific to NinjaTrader8.) Last evening, I tried to use it for the first time to export a DLL with obfuscated code. The export failed with an exception. I've attached a picture. I've also attached the log file.

Export always fails with the same exception, if the protected code export option is chosen, regardless of what is being exported.

I initially encountered the problem using my normal Windows development account. I then tried doing the same in a new account in which only NT8 and the NT8-specific version of the SecureTeam utility are installed. The same exception occurs regardless.

Question: Is it possible to use the SecureTeam utility to obfuscate a NinjaScript DLL directly, instead of by using the NinjaTrader export tool? (e.g., Step 1: Export the NinjaScript as a DLL without protection; Step 2: Obfuscate the DLL by directly using the SecureTeam utility)
