HELP NEEDED: EA user files don't seem to be migrating to VPS

[Chinedu Peter]

Good day all and complement of the Season. My EA user-created files don't seem to be migrating to VPS. This is the file I created using the FileWrite() command. Please any reason and a possible way out.

Can someone give me an example of how to use the    #property tester_file "<file_name>"  code. Thanks in advance.

My files are in the following form. How can I possibly specify it with #property?

int MacdPassHandle = FileOpen(StringConcatenate("MACDPassFile ", ChartSymbol(currChart), ".txt"),FILE_READ|FILE_TXT); MacdPassValue = (int) FileReadString(MacdPassHandle);FileClose(MacdPassHandle);
      
MacdPassHandle = FileOpen(StringConcatenate("MACDPassFile ", ChartSymbol(currChart), ".txt"),FILE_WRITE|FILE_TXT); FileWrite(MacdPassHandle, 1);FileClose(MacdPassHandle);

Is it ok to declare as follows even though the file has not been declared globally?

      string MyFile = StringConcatenate("MACDPassFile ", ChartSymbol(currChart), ".txt")
      #property tester_file MyFile  

or maybe the following:

#property tester_file <StringConcatenate("MACDPassFile ", ChartSymbol(currChart), ".txt")>

But even that did not work.

Any element inside your code starting with # are pre-compiler directives and cannot contain code that needs execution at the time of the first compiling pass.

Here some insights:

It is important to understand the difference of pre compile phase and compile phase.

Although they are both in the same file, they are processed at different stages.

Hope this helps.
