Use Icustom() with Separate string by comma - page 2

well actually i put IndicatorValues_op[50], thats why i just have problem with string data :

But here example :

what if in the data have string data

i can't do expectedCode = DoubleToStr( expectedCode );

how can I Switch Double expectedCode to string expectedCode when in the array have string data?...

I had tried to create a customizer and was trying something similar. I was able to cast double params easily between int and boolean.

But if I passed strings to icustom this way, it would not work.

I think it's because of metatrader's own internal inline type casting for variables passed to iCustom.

I had done a lot of research. And a lot of other people have been facing the same issue with MT4. But didn't find a fix.

e.g.

https://github.com/vdemydiuk/mtapi/issues/70

(This is not my project).

I ended up working with custom wrappers for indicators. Instead of using param strings.
