Releasing an update
Steps to release a new version
1. Increment the version number in Item Attributes
It's a good practice to use semantic versioning that is a universal and widely used way of software versioning. It contains three components, in the format of Major
.Minor
.Patch
where:
Major version when you make incompatible API changes.
Minor version when you add functionality in a backward-compatible manner.
Patch version when you make backward-compatible bug fixes.
2. Build your assembly and create a new distribution file
To create a distribution file, please follow the steps below that are different for each trading platform.
Navigate to Automate tab in the left sidebar
Select an indicator/robot you wish to export
Press
Build
(Do NOT useBuild with Source Code
which would make your code unprotected!)
After you finish building your indicator/cBot you will find the distribution file as a .algo file located in %UserProfile%\Documents\cAlgo\Sources\ in Indicators or Robots folder.
