Hi, I'm encountering a case where GetPersistentInt doesn't give the expected value. To test, I use a static counter, and increment PersistentInt(0) on each call of sc.Index ==0. To encounter the problem, all the following must be true : * the study must use sc.MaintainVolumeAtPriceData = 1 * it must be the first study of the chart using the VAPContainer(sc.MaintainVolumeAtPriceData =1) * on instantiation, the user must click Apply, then OK If all the above are true, here's what happens Chart: CL-201605-NYMEX 5 Min #1 | Study: Persistent test | Begin Proc | 2016-03-30 10:16:24 * Chart: CL-201605-NYMEX 5 Min #1 | Study: Persistent test | Current persistent : 0 | 2016-03-30 10:16:24 * Chart: CL-201605-NYMEX 5 Min #1 | Study: Persistent test | Persistent is now : 1 | 2016-03-30 10:16:24 * Chart: CL-201605-NYMEX 5 Min #1 | Study: Persistent test | End Proc | 2016-03-30 10:16:24 * CL-201605-NYMEX 5 Min #1 | Reloading chart. | 2016-03-30 10:16:24 Chart: CL-201605-NYMEX 5 Min #1 | Study: Persistent test | Begin Proc | 2016-03-30 10:16:25 * Chart: CL-201605-NYMEX 5 Min #1 | Study: Persistent test | Current persistent : 1 | 2016-03-30 10:16:25 * Chart: CL-201605-NYMEX 5 Min #1 | Study: Persistent test | Persistent is now : 2 | 2016-03-30 10:16:25 * Chart: CL-201605-NYMEX 5 Min #1 | Study: Persistent test | End Proc | 2016-03-30 10:16:25 * Chart: CL-201605-NYMEX 5 Min #1 | Study: Persistent test | Begin Proc | 2016-03-30 10:16:26 * Chart: CL-201605-NYMEX 5 Min #1 | Study: Persistent test | Current persistent : 1 | 2016-03-30 10:16:26 * Chart: CL-201605-NYMEX 5 Min #1 | Study: Persistent test | Persistent is now : 3 | 2016-03-30 10:16:26 * Chart: CL-201605-NYMEX 5 Min #1 | Study: Persistent test | End Proc | 2016-03-30 10:16:26 * You can see the persistent being set to 2, and on the next call, it's back to 1 In all the other cases, here's what happens.

We will need to test this. There is going to be some explanation why this is happening.

I found out sometimes you're lucky :-) Can you try : 1 Open a 5 min 30 days CL chart 2 Add the indicator 3 Click Apply 3 Wait 10 seconds 4 Click OK |

Yes, we were able to duplicate this but the code is not written properly to begin with. We made the following changes: SCSFExport scsf_PersistTest(SCStudyInterfaceRef sc)
{ static int nb=0; if (sc.SetDefaults) { sc.GraphName = "Persistent test"; sc.AutoLoop = 1; sc.FreeDLL = 0; sc.MaintainVolumeAtPriceData = 1; return; } SCString Buffer; if (sc.Index == 0) { sc.AddMessageToLog("Begin Proc",1); int& i=sc.GetPersistentInt(0); Buffer.Format("Current persistent : %d", i); sc.AddMessageToLog(Buffer,1); i++; Buffer.Format("Persistent is now : %d", i); sc.AddMessageToLog(Buffer,1); sc.AddMessageToLog("End Proc",1); } return; } Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
