Just tried the new int and float getter functions for VbP study out in SC version 1771 and it's not working.
The function call returns a zero and the resulting reference assignments are zero.

In the chart I have a VbP study with ID:1
I'm trying to get the input values in the VbP study ID:1 for start_time=(IN:37) and Number of Bars=(IN:36)

I've tried using both 0 and 1 for study ID:1 in case you're using zero base for function calls.
I've tried using both 35 and 36 for (IN:36) and both 36 and 37 for (IN:37) again in case you're using zero base for function calls.
All combinations print zeros in the message log -> see code included below

This seems straight forward so can you verify on your end and see if the functions work for you?
Thanks

function test code:

int vbp_return = 0;
double& r_vbp_start_datatime = sc.PersistVars->Doubles[0];
int& r_vbp_numbars = sc.PersistVars->Integers[0];
int study_ID = 1;
int numbars_inputIndex = 36;
int start_time_inputIndex = 37;

// chartnum, studyID, InputIndex, &double
vbp_return = sc.GetChartStudyInputFloat(sc.ChartNumber, study_ID, start_time_inputIndex, r_vbp_start_datatime);

SCString Buffer;
Buffer.Format("VbP start datetime: %6.4f, ret val = %i", r_vbp_start_datatime, vbp_return);
sc.AddMessageToLog(Buffer, 0);

vbp_return = sc.GetChartStudyInputInt(sc.ChartNumber, study_ID, numbars_inputIndex, r_vbp_numbars);

Buffer.Format("VbP num_bars: %6.4f, ret val = %i", r_vbp_numbars, vbp_return);
sc.AddMessageToLog(Buffer, 0);
