Hi everybody,
can anyone show me an example of how to use the registerCustomIndicator() method available in the IIndicators interface?
I'm referring to the

registerCustomIndicator(java.lang.Class<? extends IIndicator> indicatorClass)

method that was recently added to the JForex API.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
Regards,
Paolo

This is what I'm doing now in the onStart() method of my IStrategy:

Class c;
try {
   c = Class.forName("myPackage.myCustomIndicator");
   context.getIndicators().registerCustomIndicator(c);
} catch (ClassNotFoundException ex) {
    context.getConsole().getOut().println("IStrategy_onStart(): Exception: registerCustomIndicator() failed");
}

The registerCustomIndicator() method seems to work ok because the ClassNotFoundException is not triggered; however I get the following run-time exception:

com.dukascopy.api.JFException: Indicator info is null @ com.dukascopy.api.impl.ab.a(Unknown Source)

I can compile and use "myCustomIndicator" in JForex without problems, and its getIndicatorInfo() method is properly implemented.
I cannot sort out the above exception.
Any help is appreciated.
Kind regards,
Paolo

I fixed the issue by initializing the "indicatorInfo" variable in the variable declaration itself.

This is an excerpt of my original code:

public class myCustomIndicator implements IIndicator {
    
    // other variables...
    public IndicatorInfo indicatorInfo;

    public void onStart(IIndicatorContext context) {
        indicatorInfo = new IndicatorInfo("MYCUST", "myCustomIndicator", "myIndicators", true, false, true, NUMBER_INPUTS, NUMBER_OPTIONAL_INPUTS, NUMBER_OUTPUTS);
   // other code...
    }

    public IndicatorInfo getIndicatorInfo() {
        return indicatorInfo;
    }

    // other IIndicator methods
}

And this is the fixed code I'm using now:

public class myCustomIndicator implements IIndicator {
  
    // other variables...
    public IndicatorInfo indicatorInfo = new IndicatorInfo("MYCUST", "myCustomIndicator", "myIndicators", true, false, true, NUMBER_INPUTS, NUMBER_OPTIONAL_INPUTS, NUMBER_OUTPUTS);

    public void onStart(IIndicatorContext context) {
        //indicatorInfo not initialized dnaymore here...
   // other code...
    }

    public IndicatorInfo getIndicatorInfo() {
        return indicatorInfo;
    }

    // other IIndicator methods
}

The problem was not so difficult after all!
