Hi Guys,

Can you give an example how to use CiTime class in TimeSeries.mqh file to get open time of a bar?

Class Methods

Create Methods
Create	Creates a timeseries
BufferResize	Sets buffer size
Data Access Methods

//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| Method to access data.                                           |

//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
datetime CiTime::GetData(int index) const
  {
   CTimeBuffer *buff=At(0);
//--- checking
   if(buff==NULL)
     {
      Print("CiSpread::GetData: invalid buffer");
      return(0);
     }
//---
   return((datetime)buff.At(index));
  }

int CiTime::GetData(int start_pos,int count,datetime& buffer[]) const
  {
   return(CopyTime(m_symbol,m_period,start_pos,count,buffer));
  }

there is another error message, this should be "CiTime::GetData:invalid buffer"

"CiSpread::GetData: invalid buffer"

thrid,

CiTime::GetData(int index)

it doesn't work for me. 

but this method works.

GetData(int start_pos,int count,datetime& buffer[])

is there any different？

thanks,
