|
|
|
|
## 📋 Known Considerations
|
|
|
|
### Legacy Warnings
|
|
**Status:** Expected and acceptable
|
|
|
|
The following legacy warnings exist in the codebase and were **not introduced** by this work:
|
|
- CS1998 warnings in test mock files
|
|
- These existed before Phases A-C
|
|
- No new warnings were added
|
|
- Safe to proceed
|
|
|
|
### NT8 Strategy Compilation
|
|
**Important:** The strategy .cs files:
|
|
- Are **not compiled** into NT8.Adapters.dll
|
|
- Are deployed as **source files** to NT8
|
|
- Must be compiled **by NinjaTrader 8**
|
|
- This is by design (required for NT8 integration)
|
|
|
|
### First-Time NT8 Compilation
|
|
**Potential Issues:**
|
|
- Missing NT8 DLL references (should auto-resolve)
|
|
- Strategy namespace conflicts (none expected)
|
|
- C# version mismatch (validated as C# 5.0 compatible)
|
|
|
|
**If Issues Occur:**
|
|
1. Check NT8 version (8.0.20.1+)
|
|
2. Verify .NET Framework 4.8 installed
|
|
3. Review NinjaScript Editor error messages
|
|
4. Consult TROUBLESHOOTING.md in deployment guide
|
