Hi

I am getting compile time error when compiling REGCH.mqh, I can not understand why. please help.

thx


'STOCH_POPULT' - wrong parameters count REGCH.mqh 31 4

class REGCH : public STOCH_POPULT

constructors:

   REGCH(string sym, ENUM_TIMEFRAMES prd){first_run=true;}

and

STOCH_POPULT::STOCH_POPULT(string sym, ENUM_TIMEFRAMES prd)
{

You should pass some string and timeframe as parameters.

that happens during code running. do you mean it gives a compile time error but not run time error?

Can you attach the while file here, please?

both are constructors. don't they suppose to have the same signature?

Add simple constructor to your STOCH_POPULT class. I don't know why, but it solves the problem:

STOCH_POPULT(){};

Maybe a bug...
