Generated Code Bug with Commented out Properties

[GrumpyTrader]

It seems as though the generated code ignores when properties are commented out with the /* */ syntax. It still tries to include input parameters that are commented out into the generated code.

Hi GrumpyTrader,

Sometimes the autogenerated code will reference older code that has been removed or modified. Usually adding the code to a new script will correct that.

Thanks Chelsea. That actually didn't work in this case. I had to delete out the commented out properties for it to compile. I think the code parser is ignoring the comment syntax for some reason.

Hi GrumpyTrader,

May I confirm you copied the logic to a new script and then deleted the old script?

I have come across it too at times. The issue though seems to be inconsistent. Usually I just switch to inline comments from the block comment, though on occasion I have had to restore the property, compile successfully, then delete the property and recompile.

As Chelsea says, sometimes the only resolution has been to copy the code into another indicator and delete the errant one before compiling.

Hi Chelsea,
I copied it to a new indicator, but I didn't delete the old one. The only way to fix it was to delete the commented out properties.
