I have downloaded Ninja Trader 8 and added the reference in my windows app from
C:\Program Files (x86)\NinjaTrader 8\bin64\NinjaTrader.Client.dll
I have added
using NinjaTrader.Client; on form.
But still it give me error - Error 1 The type or namespace name 'NinjaTrader' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
I even tried adding it from C:\Program Files (x86)\NinjaTrader 8\bin\NinjaTrader.Client.dll
Any idea what am I doing wrong?

Are you trying to start NinjaTrader 8 by referencing a .dll file as opposed to its .exe file?

I am adding the DLL reference in vs2012 windows application.

vs2012 windows application.

Sorry, I have no idea what that is.

1. In the beginning of your source file you need :

using NinjaTrader.Cbi;
using NinjaTrader.Client;
using NinjaTrader.Data;

2. In your project you need to add the DLL in the references



3. In your code you will call a function from the DLL like this

 

Code

public class Orders { static NinjaTrader.Client.Client NTClient; static Object _ATILock = new Object(); static int sequenceNumber; // this is a static construcor // we establish once a pipe to NinjaTrader public Orders () { //init if (NTClient == null) { NTClient = new NinjaTrader.Client.Client(); sequenceNumber = 0; } } // this should only be done once, when we quite the windows app public static void TearDown () { NTClient.TearDown(); NTClient = null; } }

rleplae,
I am following the same steps but still it gives me error.

For what .NET version are you building your windows form ?

NT 8 would be .NET version 4.5
are you also building for that version ?
