While I've written programs in MQL4 before, I've recently downloaded Build 600 with its upgrade to MQL5.
I have downloads from two different brokers: IBFX (build 600/MetaEditor build 883), and MBTrading (build 610/MetaEditor build 887).
When I create a simple Custom Indicator in the MetaEditor from IBFX, the debugger works as expected.
When I create the same Custom Indicator (just the initial template with one string input variable) in the MetaEditor from MBTrading, the debugger terminates immediately without ever hitting the breakpoint I have set at the first line of the OnInit function. The Experts journal has the message "debugging terminated", followed by the message "IndicatorName EURUSD, M1: initialization failed(-1)".
If I remove the input variable, then debugging works as expected in the MBTrading build.
Is there a fix for this?
