Open Source Project for MetaStock

Dear Sir ,

I tried to use your MFLIB.DLL , but when I used it alone it wasn't working , but when I used all .vb code files individually (without the dll) it was working.
So there might be some problem on the Dll try.

I found this problem on my laptop so wanted to share , why it happens i dont know .

Yes, this is the same problem I am having.

The problem lies in the fact that its a .NET dll, that is configured to act as a COM dll. A COM dll should be accessible from Excel or any other COM application.

The problem I am having is that it works with my COM applications on my development machine but not on a non development machine. The COM registry settings are all the same on both machines. So I don't think its a registry issue.

I think there is some other spot where the dll is referenced that is causing the problem.......but where?

I don't have any experience making a .NET dll, COM accessible so I am not sure what the issue is.

I'm hoping there might be another developer here on Traderji that might be able to help?

Version 0.13 is now available

This fixes the updateAll bug which prevents the user from pressing it multiple times........this is nice for people that want to refresh with 20min delayed data during the day.

Fixed the Abort button bug as well

I think V0.13 is pretty stable......

I have started work on incorporating Intraday data download and writing to metastock files.

Cheers,

Hi ,
I am trying to develop stock trading system for which i need to display the real time quote data.

With help of this forum, i found metalib jar file. Kindly let me know how can i use this jar file in my JAVA program. Is there any JAVA API available for it.

It would be of great help to me if you could explain me how to integrate metalib with some datafeed provider for my Java application.

thanks
Shilpee

Version 0.14 has been out for a while now......not sure if anyone is still using my software or is following it.

to date I haven't come across any data corruption issues in general use. I know there is one data corruption issue from either adding a security or removing a security but I can't replicate the problem.

I think this is the most stable version to date.......for me personally.....I am pretty happy with it.

Hopefully its providing some benefit to people.

Cheers

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.
================================================== ==

Goto C:\Program Files\Meta-All\

Then find the Paths.txt file. Open the file and delete everything in the file.

The try running the application again.....it should work this time.

Cheers!

I finally got around to writing up a SDK and API documentation for the mflib.dll which can be used to read and write to Metastock files. This dll is completely Open Source......

This will hopefully help people with learning to write their own applications or maybe help the developers out there, to help me with some of my code to further develop it.

Check it out....

Thanks to Joydeep for the code examples!

Hello, I've been following your project from a long time. It's nice to see you discovered this forum yourself. I'd love to develop Meta-All further.
I'll join you on sourceforge too.
