How to know if compiling for Script Export

[TODDLINDSTROM]

I am using the secure plugin to handle the security of my Ninja Script and it is being compiled down into a single CS file and some DLLs.

My question is if there is a #define that I could use #if statments in the code to know whether my code is being compiled due to an F5 hit - or if its being compiled for an export.

In my case there are certain debug fields that I'd like to enable when running locally in development mode - but when I compile it for distribution, I'd really not have to remember to turn those off - if I could have something like:

#if SECURE_COMPILE

then that would help developers flow when releasing code - Is this possible? and if not - can that be added as a feature request?

Hello,

Thank you for the question.

I do not believe this would be possible as what you are referring to would be a Preprocessor Directives. NinjaTrader does not have any custom directives nor do I believe you could add them if you wanted to. This is not something NinjaTrader its self has any control over, this is part of the C# compiler.

You can review what is available and see if you could make anything work with those options. Unfortunately I do not believe there is any way to add more to what already exists there, likely the best/most simple solution would be to know you are either running it locally or exporting it and adjust a bool variable in the script accordingly.

debugMode = false/true;

I look forward to being of further assistance.
