Use ValueTuple in Ninja Trader 8 C# .Net 4.5

[Madison121]

This question is beyond the scope of NinjaTrader Customer Service. The trading platform targets .Net 4.5 and I would like to use ValueTuple (.Net 4.7) with it.

I see there is this Nuget Package to add ValueTuple to previous versions of .Net.

https://www.nuget.org/packages/System.ValueTuple/ apkjunky

However Ninja Trader 8 can only Add .Dll files and that is a Nuget Package .nupkg.

Is that possible to extract these DLL from the Nuget Package and Add them to Ninja Trader 8 or is there any other possibility to include this ValueTuple Technology to .Net 4.5? I am quite a newbie I would much appreciate a step by step explanation in case it is possible. Thanks!!

Hey Madison

What is the advantage of using ValueTuples over let's say a combination of a Collection and an Array?
