I am sorry it has been a long drawn out process

Many, many thanks

yes - logfile is written to :)

bw.close(), fos.close() and osw.close()

you suggest I delete 2 of the above
do I leave all 3 flushes ?

in the onStart method in the strategy


logger = new BM_mod14.Logger(console, "", true, true, false);

How does your code call the Logger class's constructor? What statements have: new Logger() in them?

I am confused as usual................

Are we running this on the Dukascopy platform
It seems we are with IConsole

Am I correct in thinking that the 3 flushes and closes are the reason that the log file is gone by the time I go to look for it ?

Thanks Norm

Will do

Hi Norm

"Where is a main method for testing the code?"
Unsure what you mean - I am simply running the whole code

"What is printed on the console when the code is executed?"

The various INFO...

current code


class Logger {

private IConsole console = null;
private String logFile = "C:/Users/Bob/Documents/BM_mod10.log";
private boolean info ...

no - can't seem to produce the log

no exceptions !

currently INFO: messages appear on the console

Bob M

Have done !

Will see what the output is, if any, on Monday [today is Saturday here in NZ]

Hi
Following is the user class Logger

private IConsole console = null;
private String logFile = "C:/Users/Bob/Documents/BM_mod12.log";

You were correct Norm,
Of all the many variables, only 3 have different values depending on the currency pair traded
One a boolean and the other two integer values
Now hard coded...........

Thank you for expending so much energy in trying to unravel my brain

I need to go away and convince myself that removing the whole property concept and hard-coding the values results in...

re your second point:-

That is exactly what I have coded in the meantime
I have commented out all the put, get, containsKey code

and have a whole lot of variable = value lines

It is just...

That's where I am at a loss

All I understand is that I need to create a properties class which has 3 methods
putProperty(), getProperty() and containsKeyProperty()
The first should be identical...

[QUOTE=Norm;170906]Where is the variable: properties given a value? In other words: Where is it to the left of an =?
