Listing Configured share services

[Philippe56140]

Hi There

Is there a way, similar to the account list, for enumerating configured share services ?

For accounts we use this:

        [TypeConverter(typeof(NinjaTrader.NinjaScript.AccountNameConverter))]
        public string AccountName { get; set; }        

​

But I couldn't find something similar for configured share services.

Thanks

Hello Philippe56140,

There is nothing documented in the help guide of a collection of share services.

I briefly searched the classes and objects in the Globals and Gui namespaces but was not able to locate anything.

I have inquired with our development. If I am able to obtain any further information I will follow up here.

Hi Chelsea.

Thanks for your help.
I found a solution by writing my own TypeConverter.

Now I can get the list of configured shared services.:

Would love to do this too, do you mind sharing how you did this?

Hello,

I think I found something that will work.

[NinjaScriptProperty]
[Display(Name="MyShareService",GroupName="Share Service")]
[PropertyEditor("NinjaTrader.Gui.Tools.AlertsShareServiceEditor")]
public string MyShareService
{ get; set; }

[NinjaScriptProperty]
[Display(Name="MyShareService",GroupName="Share Service")]
[PropertyEditor("NinjaTrader.Gui.Tools.AlertsShareS erviceEditor")]
public string MyShareService
{ get; set; }

This worked great, thank you!! (Just had to remove that space in ServiceEditor)

Did this using this code:

public class ShareServiceNameConverter : StringConverter
    {
        public override StandardValuesCollection GetStandardValues(ITypeDescriptorContext context)
        {
            List<string> values = new List<string>();
            lock (Core.Globals.GeneralOptions.ShareServices)
                foreach (ShareService shareService in Core.Globals.GeneralOptions.ShareServices)
                {
                    values.Add(shareService.Name); // Add the name configured by user
                }

            return new StandardValuesCollection(values);
        }

        public override bool GetStandardValuesExclusive(ITypeDescriptorContext context) { return true; }

        public override bool GetStandardValuesSupported(ITypeDescriptorContext context) { return true; }
    }    ​

Hopefully Chelsea idea seems to be more simple
