One way to work around this is by using the embeded compiler.

I can build with no errors now - has been fixed with the new nuGet Package 1.0.12.

Thank you for the quick correction of this exception.

VS => Solution Explorer, right click on “Dependencies” (guess in English it called in that way) => NuGet-Packages and there you can update the cTrader.Automate from 1.0.11 to 1.0.12

Hi, how did you update the package?

I think if you use the BuiltIn-Editor in cTrader it should be the same behaviour like in Visual Studio, so if you rebuild the project in Visual Studio the nuget-Packages should also be updated. Have a look in the solution explorer of Visual Studio:

[ProjectName]

  Dependencies

     Packages

        cTrader.Automate (1.0.12)

Thanks guys - building for me too now.

I have however had some problems debugging - symbols not loaded, so my breakpoints are not hit…

I'm looking into it at the moment in case it's an issue on my end but just thought I'd post to see if anyone else has the same problem?

Do symbols need to be packaged with the release?

Thanks for the reply Andi,

I'm still stuck unfortunately…

Were you able to debug referenced projects?

Do you know where I should be looking for the .pdb files for symbols?

is it here “C:\Users\jonla\AppData\Local\Spotware\cTrader\abb70432efbee65d18af69e79fe8efe1\app_5.2.5.38882\algohost.netcore”?

Yes, i was able to debug referenced projects.

Unfortunately no - i don't know where you should be looking for the .pdb files for symbols - i'm sorry.

I hope you can solve this debugging problem.
