Running MQL5 Program Properties
To obtain information about the currently running mql5 program, constants from ENUM_MQL_INFO_INTEGER and ENUM_MQL_INFO_STRING are used.
For function MQLInfoInteger
ENUM_MQL_INFO_INTEGER
| Identifier | Description | Type |
|---|---|---|
| MQL_HANDLES_USED | The current number of active object handles. These include both dynamic (created via new ) and non-dynamic objects, global/local variables or class members. The more handles a program uses, the more resources it consumes. | int |
| MQL_MEMORY_LIMIT | Maximum possible amount of dynamic memory for MQL5 program in MB | int |
| MQL_MEMORY_USED | Memory used by MQL5 program in MB | int |
| MQL_PROGRAM_TYPE | Type of the MQL5 program | ENUM_PROGRAM_TYPE |
| MQL_DLLS_ALLOWED | The permission to use DLL for the given running program | bool |
| MQL_TRADE_ALLOWED | The permission to trade for the given running program | bool |
| MQL_SIGNALS_ALLOWED | The permission to modify the Signals for the given running program | bool |
| MQL_DEBUG | Indication that the program is running in the debugging mode | bool |
| MQL_PROFILER | Indication that the program is running in the code profiling mode | bool |
| MQL_TESTER | Indication that the program is running in the tester | bool |
| MQL_FORWARD | Indication that the program is running in the forward testing process | bool |
| MQL_OPTIMIZATION | Indication that the program is running in the optimization mode | bool |
| MQL_VISUAL_MODE | Indication that the program is running in the visual testing mode | bool |
| MQL_FRAME_MODE | Indication that the Expert Advisor is running in gathering optimization result frames mode | bool |
| MQL_LICENSE_TYPE | Type of license of the EX5 module. The license refers to the EX5 module, from which a request is made using MQLInfoInteger( MQL_LICENSE_TYPE ). | ENUM_LICENSE_TYPE |
| MQL_STARTED_FROM_CONFIG | Returns true if a script/EA is launched from the StartUp section of the configuration file . This means that the script/EA had been specified in the configuration file the terminal was launched with. | bool |
For function MQLInfoString
ENUM_MQL_INFO_STRING
| Identifier | Description | Type |
|---|---|---|
| MQL_PROGRAM_NAME | Name of the running mql5-program | string |
| MQL5_PROGRAM_PATH | Path for the given running program | string |
For information about the type of the running program, values of ENUM_PROGRAM_TYPE are used.
ENUM_PROGRAM_TYPE
| Identifier | Description |
|---|---|
| PROGRAM_SCRIPT | Script |
| PROGRAM_EXPERT | Expert |
| PROGRAM_INDICATOR | Indicator |
| PROGRAM_SERVICE | Service |
ENUM_LICENSE_TYPE
| Identifier | Description |
|---|---|
| LICENSE_FREE | A free unlimited version |
| LICENSE_DEMO | A trial version of a paid product from the Market. It works only in the strategy tester |
| LICENSE_FULL | A purchased licensed version allows at least 5 activations. The number of activations is specified by seller. Seller may increase the allowed number of activations |
