If i build any custom studies by option "Build With Visual C++ - Release", then Build Output is:

-- Starting build of Custom Studies Source files: Studies.cpp. -- 13:31:55

C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe /C "C:\SierraChart\ACS_Source\VisualCCompile.Bat"


C:\SierraChart\ACS_Source>call "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat" amd64
cl : Command line warning D9002 : ignoring unknown option '/std:c++17'
Studies.cpp
c:\sierrachart\acs_source\scdatetime.h(1423): error C2143: syntax error: missing ',' before ')'
c:\sierrachart\acs_source\scdatetime.h(1423): error C2059: syntax error: ')'
-- End of Build -- 13:31:57


If i build the same study by option "Remote Build - Standard", then Build Output is:

-- Starting remote build of Custom Studies Source files: Studies.cpp. 64-bit -- 13:37:05

Allow time for the server to compile the files and build the DLL.

Server: https://build.sierrachart.com
The remote build is complete.
The build succeeded.
The compiler response is empty.

Writing file to: C:\SierraChart\Data\Studies_64.dll
-- End of Build -- 13:37:15

First we have heard of this and we do not see this. Maybe the compiler you are running is out of date but anyway we will remove that line. It is not essential.

The solution is to update the Visual C++ compiler on your system. You can do that from here:

The issue was on my end and was resolved by updating the compiler C++.

Thank you
