What does the error mean for Some Indicator? - General

Ilya Malev:

This script is for MetaTrader 4 :)

In MT4 just all the data is precisely calculated by the terminal before it is received in mql4 programs

Yes, I checked afterwards

ZS: I wonder if these message codes that work for MT4 will not work for MT5 )

Alexandr Bryzgalov:

Why don't you post the version for MT5? ) I don't know what it's for in MT4, but in MT5 it would be of real use - in view of the hopelessness of the situation I wrote above.

Basically here is for MT5, but I'm not sure (or rather I'm sure it's not the right one) that the command code(

PostMessageA(hwnd,WM_COMMAND,33324,0);

) is correct.

Compiles without errors, runs without errors.

Compiles without errors, runs without errors.

For some reason it doesn't work. If you want, you can continue the discussion in your script branch.

Yes, it doesn't work, the code(33324) is not suitable for MT5.

I'll leave it at that for now, busy with other things.

ZS: all that remains is to find the right command code. )

Suggestions for MQL syntax Any questions from newcomers How do I learn

For what purposedoes the testerdelete the files in the tester\Agent\MQL5\Files folder before testing the indicator?

Ilya Malev 2015.10.15 16:26 #14008

What does the error mean in tester 2015.10.15 19:22:44.860 1999.05.26 00:00:00 debug version of 'SomeIndicator.ex5', please recompile it ?

P.S. After recompiling it seems to load, but want to understand what was wrong.

The EX5 passed to the strategy tester was prepared for debugging (debug version), please recompile it.
