Hi all, I just found this forum, how many problems had I solved quicker if I would have know this site time ago? :
So… i’m facing a very strange problem. I exported some strategies with IRD from a production environment and tried to import on my lab environment. Everything was OK but one thing. When I open the strategy I just see nothing, just the grey boxes (I’m uploaing a screenshot). If I open one box, functions, variables etc… are OK as well.
That what I think at first but it doesnt make sense for me. I’m working with five more persons and we dont have the same version for sure. Anyway, I’ll change my IRD version.
One more thing I forgot to ask. Every strategy we got is in ansi bytecode. When I import a .rbn file, is saved as utf8. What’s the difference between an ansi strategy and a utf8 strategy?
Would make sense as if you open a word 2012 on 2000 some formats will not work. Same thing here. Features are not always 100% compatible.
About ANSI and UTF is a version change. Lately UTF8 is used for compatibility.
“Compatibility” here is very old thing and not actual now mostly - effectively it is compatibility with 6.x IRD - and better never to check it (as for me).
Format of strategies for 6.x and 7.x+ IRD is a bit different.
If this check box is checked:
When strategy is created it will be created in a way that IRD 6.x will understand it.
When strategy is opened IRD will behave as if it is 6.x IRD.
Have assumption that mentioned strategy was created by IRD having this check box unchecked (= not compatible with 6.x)
but opened with IRD having it checked.
