Duplicate Method Names on Import.

[David Lean]

Hi,
Could you expand on how Ninja incorporates an Imported script into its collection of indicators?

When attempting to Import my compiled NinjaScript my beta tester has got the following error.
Import NinjaScript Archive File (.ntns) Error
Import Failed. The existing NinjaScript file 'D3Spotter, Version=1.0.0.1, Culture=neutral,PublicKeyToken=null' containes duplicate method names found in the imported NinjaScript Archive File.

My Indicator does have a number of Methods but they are all private except for the Methods required by the Indicator Class. ie:

• protected override void Initialize()

• protected override void OnBarUpdate()
• public override void Plot(Graphics graphics, Rectangle bounds, double min, double max)

I also have 2 Global enums with Names Long enough that I thought would avoid namespace collision.

Q1. Given that most Ninja examples display the Plot event as Public. would it hurt my making it Protected or Internal?
Q2. Is that likely to be where my Method collisions are occouring? or is there something happening under the covers?
Q3. I'm assuming that private methods aren't likely to causing an issue. Or is there something that I'm overlooking?
Thanks

Hi David, please install the indicator manually then to see the specific issues encountered being listed (drop the dll in the Bin > Custom folder and restart NT, then compile - if this is a cs file just drop it into the Bin > Custom > Indicator folder instead).

The Plot() method should be public and this should not be changed, thus unlikely collisions stem from this, same for the private methods you use.

Same lines before/after line 666:



// Additional Minutes Timer Code
private bool DisplayTime()
{
if (ChartControl != null
&& Bars != null
&& Bars.Count > 0
&& Bars.MarketData != null
&& Bars.MarketData.Connection.PriceStatus == Cbi.ConnectionStatus.Connected
&& (Bars.MarketData.Connection.Options.Provider != Cbi.Provider.OpenTick || !(Bars.MarketData.Connection.Options as Cbi.OpenTickOptions).UseDelayedData)
&& Bars.Session.InSession(Now, Bars.Period.Id, true) )
return true;

return false;
}

Select the indicator, hold shift, mouse wheel up/down to change the z-order of the selected object.
