The right edge software has given me to learn C# to attempt to code my custom indicator for use in this platform. My indicator in C# is done but I am lost as to programming a dll. I understand the concept of a dll but not the method to carry out the task.
Can anyone help?

You need to use Microsoft Visual Studio to create a DLL. There is a free version of Visual Studio called Visual Studio Express.
Visual Studio Express web site.
You'll want to download and install the Visual Studio Express C# version.
You then want to create a "Class Library" (which means DLL).
Here's a tutorial on the topic of creating a class library. Once you successfully create the class library, copy it to the RightEdge/Plugins folder. Start up RightEdge and your indicator should show up in the tree.

| If I had 2 or 3 examples of a dll that plugs into Right Edge I think that I could finish my project. I have never written a dll before. Can anyone help?

| After some grinding I figured it out and here goes: In C# Visual Studio, create a new class library, name it, add your code, add references as required, then build it. If it builds fine, close the solution and save the project in a chosen folder. In explorer, find the directory where the solution was saved, find the bin/release subfolder, copy the .dll file to RE plugin folder. A good start is the sample indicators find on RE website.

| Do I need to restart RE after a plugin is added?

| Yes, you will generally need to restart RightEdge to have it pick up a new plugin.
