ObjectGetValueByTime conversion warnings

New comment
 

why does the following line of code produce these two warning messages -

"implicit conversion from 'string' to 'number' "

"implicit conversion from 'number' to 'string' "   


Also it returns a value (Price) of 0.0, despite the Trendline ("test2a") intersecting m15 Time[1] 

Print(ObjectGetValueByTime("test2a",Time[1],0));

  1. No idea, probably code not posted.
  2. OGVBT returns a double, so you have Print(aDouble). Print requires a string so the double must be implicitly converted.
  3. All code not posted. Probably a typeo on the name (case matters.) Don't duplicate code, write it once:
    const string tlName2 = "test2a";
:
   CreateTL(tlName2, ...);
:
   double tl2Value = ObjectGetValueByTime(tlName2,Time[1],0);
   Print( DoubleToString(tl2Value) );

Well, here is the code in its entirety . Print usually performs automatic type conversion. Nevertheless I added DoubleToString and it still produces the same warnings

   Print(DoubleToString(ObjectGetValueByTime("test2a",Time[1],0),4));   
}

 

 

 

PS  Furthermore this returns a value of 2, which is OBJ_TREND

Print("****object type integer ",ObjectType("test2a"));
