fail to compile CS1061

[lavalampmj]

There is a something wrong in this code, it fails to compile with CS1061. Something to do with the property? Just can't can't see the issue.

public class TestDoubleSeries : Indicator
{
   private Series<double> doubleSeries;

   protected override void OnStateChange()
   {
       if (State == State.SetDefaults)
       {
          Description = @"why is this not compiling";
          Name = "TestDoubleSeries";
          Calculate = Calculate.OnBarClose;
          IsOverlay = false;
          DisplayInDataBox = true;
          DrawOnPricePanel = true;
          DrawHorizontalGridLines = true;
          DrawVerticalGridLines = true;
          PaintPriceMarkers = true;
          ScaleJustification = NinjaTrader.Gui.Chart.ScaleJustification.Right;
          IsSuspendedWhileInactive = true;
       }
       else if (State == State.DataLoaded)
       {
          doubleSeries = new Series<double>(this, MaximumBarsLookBack.Infinite);
       }
   }

    protected override void OnBarUpdate()
    {
       doubleSeries[0] = 1.0;
    }

    #region Properties
    [Browsable(false)]
    [XmlIgnore]
    public Series<double> State
    {
       get { return doubleSeries; }
     }
    #endregion
}

Hello lavalampmj,

Thank you for your post.

The issue is calling your public property State, which is basically keeping the references to the actual indicator State in OnStateChange() from working.

If you change it so the public series is just named DoubleSeries (uppercase D), that should work for you:

#region Properties
[Browsable(false)]
[XmlIgnore]
public Series<double> DoubleSeries
{
get { return doubleSeries; }
}
#endregion

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

Thanks so much. Sometimes, you can't see "wood for the trees"!

I now see that there is a Ninjascript.State property (used in the OnStateChange() method), so calling my public series also State was the problem....

C# compiler was telling me this, by why so cryptic in the error message?

Thanks
