Post From: IsReplayRunning() incorrect on last bar

The problems are 100% reproducible. Since you didn't share your code or complete log, I'm not sure what you tested but the attached code and output clearly show the following issues.

Problems:
1) Replay stops 2 bars before the last bar. I would expect replay to replay thru the last tick available

2) The last bar is sent w/o any replay flags (IsreplayRunning, GetReplayHasFinishedStatus), recalculation flag, or reset of index. This is truly an invalid state and looks to the code like real time data but is in fact replay data.

3) Per the current GetReplayHasFinishedStatus() documentation, I would expect to see a final callback of the last bar "one more time" with GetReplayHasFinishedStatus flag set to indicate that the replay has completed. If that's not the case, it would be great if you'd update the documentation to match the functionality. Currently the flag is set prior to the last bar.


This code run while disconnected with the attached replay settings:
#include <sierrachart.h>

SCDLLName("ReplayTest"); //DLL name

SCSFExport scsf_ReplayTest(SCStudyGraphRef sc) {
if (sc.SetDefaults) {
sc.AutoLoop = 0;
sc.AddMessageToLog("SetDefaults",0);
return;
}
if (sc.LastCallToFunction) { sc.AddMessageToLog("last call",0); return; }
SCString s;
s.Format("%s index:%d recalc:%d replay:%d finished:%d",
sc.DateTimeToString(sc.BaseDateTimeIn[sc.UpdateStartIndex],FLAG_DT_COMPLETE_DATETIME).GetChars()
,sc.UpdateStartIndex
,sc.IsFullRecalculation
,sc.IsReplayRunning()
,sc.GetReplayHasFinishedStatus()
);
sc.AddMessageToLog(s,0);
}
