Loading order

[blar58]

Hi,

I have saved a workspace in NT 8 with 4 charts. I need to load these indicators in a specific order because they communicate between them and need to received information in a specific order.

How can I load these charts in a specific same order all the time. Is it something that can be set up in code ?


Thanks

Hello,

I wanted to reply back with further details on this topic.

Unfortunately there is no specific way to control the load order in the platform due to a host of factors that influence the way things are loaded.

I could only suggest that you change each indicator to report that it has been loaded in the same way you are currently having them communicate.

Inter script communication in this way is left out of the platform by default due to how items are loaded, instead there is a call and response system in place. This would entail that if Indicator A needs information from Indicator B, Indicator A would need to Call indicator B in the documented ways. If that is not possible per the logic you want to create, the logic from B would need to go into A to complete the logic loop.

If you are working on a communication system in other ways such as static classes, you will run into problems like this and also could run into race conditions as items can occur at the same time or in different orders than expected.

If you feel that you are using a documented or supported approach at having the scripts communicate but can not control the load order, you could provide a simplified sample for me to review and I could check if there may be other ways to accomplish the same task.

I look forward to being of further assistance.
