NinjaScript Libraries

[Bmatheny]

I'm trying to find out if NinjaScript supports the development of "Libraries"?

In other languages, code functions can be developed into external libraries, "included" into the main script and called from that main script.

I've been through the help file and don't see any reference to this feature. I do see .net class builders, but wanted to get an answer directly from your guys before I start working in .net to create a new class library.

thanks in advance.

This is possible but not something we can provide support for.

Please see this thread as I think it will help you through this process: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/f...ad.php?t=44225

Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

How about this? Can one NinjaScript file call a function of another NinjaScript file and retrieve the return value(s)?

[NinjaTrader_Lance]

Absolutely.

Develop your library as a set of class files that are partial classes of the classes from which the main entities, indicators and strategies, derive. Use the UserDefinedMethods.cs files as templates.

That's what I was looking for. I'd seen it before, but could not locate it in the help files. Thanks.

Can I encrypt and distribute a custom userDefinedMethod.cs file with my NinjaScript application?

thanks for all the help guys. I'm almost ready.

While it's not supported, yes you will be able to include this file when exporting. Just like with exporting any other script it will appear in the export window: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...tml?export.htm
