Indicator ActiveGeoKingV1001 is a .dll file

Sorry, this is not a question but there is no place or provisions to report this issue in downloads section.

This recently uploaded indicator is a .DLL file and is not open source. Perhaps it went undetected. Maybe the author can upload a .CS version of the code, otherwise it is against the rules and not safe to install.

Cheers!

Hi Aligator. I originally uploaded the compiled version because I wanted to check all the code for any sensitive data prior to putting the CS files up. (10k lines to go over, done now). Not realizing that compiled versions weren't allowed, there were no file rules visible apart from which file extensions were permitted.

I tried to upload the new version with CS files only and am getting an error saying that I am not allowed to upload *dll files. So the *.zip with DLL was allowed, and now replacing with a *.zip without only CS files is not allowed. I have messaged the site admin about the issue.

Hi @Marty087. Thanks for the response. I have bumped it up to Mike's attention regarding the issue of uploading the new file.

Uploading the dll is an understandable mistake, and so long as it is corrected, all will be well.

FYI, the Terms and Conditions do discuss dll's:

As a general policy, we make a best-effort to not allow DLL files. Never upload a DLL file. This is because a .dll file is an executable file that does not contain source code (the human-readable program) that can be examined to determine what it does. Instead, it is in a compiled form that contains only computer-readable instructions that are directly executed by the computer, without the possibility of human review. It therefore represents a potential risk and we cannot allow these types of files (files of either type ".dll" or ".exe") to be posted on the site. If you encounter a DLL file on the site, please Report it to the moderators.

Well noted, thanks Bob. It's late here in Australia, Ill check if I can upload again in the morning. Cheers.

@Marty087,

Using the help desk ticket that I just responded to, please export NinjaTrader zip and confirm no dll, then attach that zip to the help desk ticket.

I'll move it manually for you.

If you have instructions for end users to remove and then reinstall, please include in the help desk and I'll update the description as well.

Thanks Mike, the zip has been emailed. I am able to update the text in the listing, just not the file. So I will test the install later, and if instructions are required Ill add to the listing. Cheers.

Ok, please reply to help desk ticket when you have updated the description -- I will then do a manual notification email to anyone that downloaded the prior version.

As of this time, the zip is replaced.
