Debug in MC

Postby QuantTrader » 07 Aug 2013

I am trying to debug a new indicator written in PowerLanguage.

(i) Breakpoint appears to give a compile error.

(ii) I would also like to find a way of exporting the indicator values in ascii/csv/xlsx format for testing. QuoteManager appears to let me export the price series only.

Thanks.

Is there another way to debug a PowerLanguage script in MC?

you can try using PRINT to trace the variable...

Breakpoint is not supported in MultiCharts.
So the `breakpoint` keyword is included in PowerLanguage for at least a year. Are there plans to make this keyword do something?

At the moment we don't plan to implement Breakpoint functionality.
