# Compilation Test Results ## Test Date: 2025-10-29 ### Files to Compile: 1. **EntrySystem_Optimised.mqh** - Location: `Modules_optimised/EntrySystem_Optimised.mqh` - Status: ✅ Should compile successfully - Expected: 0 errors, 0 warnings 2. **Test_EntrySystem_SignalFrequency.mq5** - Location: `ERMT_7x/Test_EntrySystem_SignalFrequency.mq5` - Status: ✅ Fixed include order - Expected: 0 errors, 0 warnings --- ## Fix Applied: ### Issue: ``` declaration without type - Line 15 undeclared identifier 'ENUM_ENTRY_MODE' ``` ### Root Cause: Input parameters were declared BEFORE the include files that define `ENUM_ENTRY_MODE`. ### Solution: Moved `#include` statements to appear BEFORE input parameter declarations. **Before:** ```cpp input ENUM_ENTRY_MODE SingleStrategy = ENTRY_MA_CROSS; #include "../Modules_optimised/EntrySystem_Optimised.mqh" ``` **After:** ```cpp #include "../Modules_optimised/Datatypes_Optimised.mqh" #include "../Modules_optimised/EntrySystem_Optimised.mqh" input ENUM_ENTRY_MODE SingleStrategy = ENTRY_MA_CROSS; ``` --- ## Compilation Steps: ### Method 1: MetaEditor ``` 1. Open MetaEditor 2. File → Open → Navigate to: MQL5/Experts/Advisors/ERMT_7x/Test_EntrySystem_SignalFrequency.mq5 3. Press F7 (Compile) 4. Check Output tab 5. Expected: "0 error(s), 0 warning(s)" ``` ### Method 2: Via Terminal ``` 1. Open MetaTrader 5 Terminal 2. Navigator → Scripts 3. Right-click on Test_EntrySystem_SignalFrequency 4. Select "Compile" 5. Check Journal/Experts tab for results ``` --- ## Expected Compiler Output: ``` Test_EntrySystem_SignalFrequency.mq5 0 error(s), 0 warning(s) Code successfully compiled. ``` --- ## If Errors Persist: ### Error: "Cannot open include file" **Check:** - File paths are correct relative to script location - EntrySystem_Optimised.mqh exists in `../Modules_optimised/` - TechnicalAnalysis_Optimised.mqh exists in `Modules_optimised/` **Solution:** Verify file structure: ``` MQL5/Experts/Advisors/ ├── Modules_optimised/ │ ├── Datatypes_Optimised.mqh │ ├── EntrySystem_Optimised.mqh │ └── [other modules] └── ERMT_7x/ ├── Modules_optimised/ │ └── TechnicalAnalysis_Optimised.mqh └── Test_EntrySystem_SignalFrequency.mq5 ``` ### Error: "Undeclared identifier" **Check:** - Includes are in correct order (Datatypes first) - All enum types are defined in Datatypes_Optimised.mqh --- ## Post-Compilation Test: Once compiled successfully: 1. Open any chart (e.g., EURUSD M15) 2. Navigator → Scripts → Test_EntrySystem_SignalFrequency 3. Drag script onto chart 4. Input dialog should show: - TestBars = 1000 - TestAllStrategies = true - **SingleStrategy dropdown with all strategies** ← This confirms enum is working 5. Click OK 6. Check Experts tab for output --- ## Success Indicators: ✅ Script compiles without errors ✅ Input dialog shows strategy dropdown ✅ Script runs and produces output ✅ All 7 strategies are tested ✅ Report is generated --- ## Troubleshooting: ### If script compiles but crashes on run: **Possible Causes:** 1. Insufficient bars for testing (TestBars > available bars) 2. Indicator calculation fails 3. Memory issues **Solutions:** 1. Reduce TestBars to 500 or 200 2. Check symbol has sufficient history 3. Run on a symbol with good data quality (EURUSD, GBPUSD, etc.) --- ## Next Steps After Successful Compilation: 1. ✅ Run on M15 timeframe 2. ✅ Run on H1 timeframe 3. ✅ Run on H4 timeframe 4. ✅ Compare signal frequencies 5. ✅ Select best strategy for each timeframe 6. ✅ Configure main EA with selected strategy 7. ✅ Test on demo account --- **Status**: Ready for compilation testing **Last Updated**: 2025-10-29
