    Using DLLImport for C DLL

    Hi,

    Assuming one has a C DLL that provides functionality you would need for a NinjaScript indicator, how does one incorporate the DLL? This is specifically for the Jurik JMA function:

    [DLLImport("jrs_ut.dll")]
    unsafe public static extern int JMAUT (

    I'm getting the errors "unsafe code may only appear if compiling with /unsafe", "type or namespace name 'DLLImport' could not be found'", and "type or namespace 'DLLImportAttribute' could not be found"

    I have

    using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

    in the imports. Thanks!

    Gordon

    Hello,

    Thanks for the forum post.

    This is unfortunately outside the scope that I'm able to provide support for. I will leave this open for someone that has experience in C to be able to assist however.

      Gordon, I'm wondering why you would need this, the Jurik tools would have native NS wrapper indicators your could readily use without coding to a custom DLL needed.

        Hi Bertrand,

        The primary benefit would be encapsulting/hiding settings, but I may simply go that route. Aternatlively, I could create a .Net assembly outside of NT and then reference it.

        Regards,

        Gordon
