Hi Brett, Thank you for sharing your toolkit. I started to use the debug_PrintOrders function when I needed to learn about reading trade lists, but I was getting strange results. The PositionQuantity was printing 0 when it should be returning a non-zero value. I was able to get it right when I added (int) to the Quantity lines: fprintf(FileOut, " PositionQuantity: %d\n", (int)PositionData.PositionQuantity);
It then worked. Could be I am using the Visual C++ compiler? I usually don't' use the remote compiler. I tested on Sierra versions 2092 and 2128. Best wishes, Brad Houser |

That's odd... I haven't used debug in a long time. From the ACSIL documentation: [Type: integer] PositionQuantity %d in printf is an unsigned int. It should have been auto-cast if it wasn't. BUT... it doesn't say what size of an int it is, but may not care. I always use open source stuff, so am unsure about VC++. Maybe you could try %ld for "long int" just to see what happens? If you use the remote compiler, does it work without the (int) cast? I don't think you have to reconfigure your setup to test. |

I think they made it a double for fractional quantities, at least on Win64. All the Quantities are type t_OrderQuantity32_64. Structures.h has this: #ifdef _WIN64
typedef double t_OrderQuantity32_64;//TODO: Use this only when change to SCDateTimeUnix #else/* #ifdef _DEBUG typedef double t_OrderQuantity32_64; #else*/ typedef int t_OrderQuantity32_64; //#endif #endif Look like the key is _WIN64. Thanks for your reply, Brad |

I just traced that in my scstructures.h also in v2135. The "SCDateTimeUnix" comment doesn't makes sense in reference to a quantity count. That may be a benign bug (for the most part).

Hi Brett, Hope your are keeping well. I have just updated to sierra version 2348. I now get an error message when recompilling the brett johnson standard tool kit. The main study I use is the forex decorrelation and strength study. Love this study and is the back bone of my trading strategy. Many thanks. Hoping the problem can be resolved. Colin Alchin |

Is this still supported? I can't seem to get it to compile in the current version of sierra.

SC dev's changed a bunch of variable names and broke things. It should compile with 2411 now. As my health has gotten worse this year, I don't have time nor energy to do much with this. |

Thanks, I need them. Since I can't move quickly, I recommend backing up the full SC directory before any upgrades. That way if an upgrade breaks something important, you've got an easy fall back.
