my first script

[stephenszpak]

I seem to be missing something here.
I can't get NinjaScript to work at all.
I'm just trying to get it to print Hi at the output window and
ever time I add anything to the bottom of what is below
I will get an error. If I figure this out tonight I will repost.
Putting // with comments if just fine
but anything else results in an error, usually Namespace
Member Declaration Expected.




Thanks to any replies. -Stephen

Try deleting this script and start again.

Close it, then select Tools > Edit NinjaScript > Indicator > selec this and press Delete button.

Clearing the screen doesn't help.

This is the program I wish to use:

//Either/Or decision
int x=1;
if (x==0)
{
Print("Hi");
}
else
{
Print("Buy");
}

>>>>>>>>>>>>> Sorry..

Might be on the wrong screen, but I don't think you want me to delete all
the NinjaTrader indicators??

I wanted you to delete the indicator causing the issue and start from scratch.

Here is a reference for debugging compile errors.

Thanks, there is no indicator to my knowledge.
I'm just trying to get some of the simple programs at "Getting Started with NinjaScript-
Basic Syntax" to run. The program below is just 10 lines of code. I think I must
be putting it in the wrong screen or something. Sorry this is so confusing to us.

Is it possible for you to post an image of what I should be seeing on my computer
and also where to add my short program within the image?

Stephen,

What you should be seing is "no errors".

- Shut down NT
- Restart
- Tools > Edit NinjaScript > Indicator
- Select "any" indicator, press F5
---> Does it compile?

- NO, then delete the problem files as per my earlier messages/links
- YES, great then there is no problem
