override-n inputs are not seen

[ttodua]

if we use the standard way:

class Indi_A : Indicator

[Display(Name = "name")]
[NinjaScriptProperty]
public string myName  {  get; set;  }

then everything is ok, and we can call indi from other indis, like:

myIndi( string Name)

however, when i add`override`

class Indi_A : Indi_B 
.......


class Indi_B : Indicator

[Display(Name = "name")]
[NinjaScriptProperty]
public string myName  {  get; set;  }

when I add want to call `indi_A(....)` from other indicator, it doesnt have an overload with string myName, like `indi_A(string myName)`.

In base class I have several MUST-HAVE inputs (that i use in all indicators), and wanted that my indicators inherited those inputs automatically, in addition that they could be programatically called (but this last one is problem).

Hello TazoTodua,

Thanks for the post.

If you are trying to override the property from a different indicator, the indicator (Indicator B) can use the variable from the other indicator's property (Indicator A) because they share the same namespace. Indicator B does not inherit from Indicator A so it does not know what to override.

I found this StackOverflow post on this subject. It should help with completing this:

The polymorphic way of doing this would require your base class to be abstract, but we are unable to change the implementation of the class given to us when we generate a new NinjaScript Indicator or Strategy.

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

I have updated original question to be more clear.

Hello TazoTodua,

Thanks for the reply.

This could be possible but the NinjaScript compiler will not generate properties from the base class. The properties must be available in the same indicator class to display in the property grid. The supported way of doing this would be to save your properties to a document and copy/paste the properties if you need to use these properties in multiple scripts.

Please let me know if I may be of any further assistance.

Hello...

but what you say is indication that NT compiler has a bug and we had to make a burden of manual copy-paste to solve that..
