sc.StorageBlock is said to be of 512b. Yet, I cannot fit all of the following variables into it: struct s_PermData
{ int ChartPosition; double Lastentryprice; //or reduced to float int Lastentrybar; int LastIntOrderId; int LastPTargetOrderId; int LastSLOrderId; }; s_PermData* PermData; PermData = (s_PermData*)sc.StorageBlock; in the beginning of my code I retrieve these values and at the end- save into sc.StorageBlock. CurrentPosition=PermData->ChartPosition;
if (CurrentPosition==0) { entrybar=i; entryprice=(double)sc.Close[i]; TargetOrderID=0; StopOrderID=0; IntOrderID=0; } else { entrybar=PermData->Lastentrybar; entryprice=PermData->Lastentryprice; IntOrderID=PermData->LastIntOrderId; TargetOrderID=PermData->LastPTargetOrderId; StopOrderID=PermData->LastSLOrderId; } .................................... ................................... PermData->ChartPosition=CurrentPosition; PermData->Lastentryprice=entryprice; PermData->Lastentrybar=entrybar; PermData->LastIntOrderId=IntOrderID; PermData->LastPTargetOrderId=TargetOrderID; PermData->LastSLOrderId=StopOrderID;[/i] A double and 1 int - work. 5 ints - work. A float and 2 ints - work...All of them together - generate a CPU exception at runtime. Why would this be? Is there a way to define a second StorageBlock for the study instance? |

All we can say is you must be doing something wrong if you are getting an exception. There is only one StorageBlock per study.

If I do not assign/retrieve them, just declare - all works fine.. But i commented/uncommented each single statement of usage to corner the error and each of them works by itself..or in combination (like described)...but not all of them together...that's why i thought of a Storageblock memory limitation.. |
