Programing EAs in Windows Vista

New comment
 
Hi,


I have made a simple EA just to check if it works correctly.


But, although the functions "init()" and "deinit()" are executed, the function "start()" is not executed.


I have Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 1.


This is the EA I have made:

int init()
{

Print("Entering init()");

}

//| expert deinitialization function |

int deinit()
{

Print("Entering deinit()");

}

int start()

Try attaching it to an M1 chart. Then wait for incoming ticks. The start() function should be executed each time an incoming tick arrives (whilst it is idle).
