Using DLL compiled for NETSTANDARD2.0

[WHICKED]

is there a way that I can use a DLL that was compiled in NETSTANDARD2.0 ?

Hello WHICKED,

Thank you for your post.

While .NET Framework is what we support, you can add your own DLL's and use them in your custom development works. 3rd party DLL's would be downloaded and added in the Documents\NinjaTrader 8\bin\Custom folder, and once the DLL is added, you can open the NinjaScript Editor, right click and add select References to add a reference for that DLL so you can use it.

If you have a need for netstandard, you could try adding the following reference in the Documents\NinjaTrader 8\Config.xml file which has worked for others. (This must be done while NinjaTrader is closed.) To do so:

• Exit NinjaTrader
• Open the config.xml file
• Add the following line under <References>
• <string>netstandard.dll</string>
• Save and now you should be able to compile

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

Hi NinjaTrader_Kate, this worked for me. Do you know why this works?

Hello wadams,

By adding the reference, the platform will use the system netstandard assembly file.

Please let us know if you have any further questions.
