Please update your documentation regarding adding 3rd Party Assemblies

[mmeninger]

Hello -

I had a little bit of trouble adding 3rd party DLLs to NT 8 until I read through the trace files.
I am going to use mongoDB with Ninjatrader 8 and they have C# driver support:

https://docs.mongodb.org/ecosystem/drivers/csharp/

NT will only add 3rd party assemblies via the right-click References.. menu option when they are in the: 016-04-14 20:41:22:629 Loading 3rd party C:\Users\<user>\Documents\NinjaTrader 8\bin\Custom\<3rd party dll> directory.

Your online docs does not explicitly state this.

I had to debug my way through it.

It would be helpful to have this more explicitly stated.

Thanks,
Mark

Hello mmeninger,

Thank you for writing in.

If you are utilizing a third party assembly, then you will need to add a Reference to it, per the information stated in the "Using 3rd Party Indicators" page of the help guide: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...indicators.htm

This would also apply for any NinjaScript items that are going to use a third party assembly.

Please, let us know if we may be of further assistance.

Okay - that is my bad. I didn't read it clearly enough.

Thanks,
Mark
