# MtApi - .NET API for MetaTrader trading platform (MetaQuotes).
|
|
MtApi provides an .NET API interface to work with famous trading platfroms MetaTrader4 and MetaTrader5 (MetaQuotes).
|
|
The api is using directly connection to MetaTrader terminal and is working with MQL functions and the most functions of the api have MQL interface.
|
|
The connection can be local or remote (by TCP).
|
|
|
|
# MtApi structure
|
|
The project has two parts:
|
|
- client side (C#): MtApi and MtApi5;
|
|
- server side (C# and C++/CLI): MTApiService, MTConnector, MT5Connector, MQL experts.
|
|
Server side was designed with using WCF framework so it can be flaxible to setup connections but can be more slow compared with another connections types (for example, shared memory).
|
|
MTApiService is common engine communication project of the API for MT4 and MT5.
|
|
MTApiService library should be placed in Windows GAC (Global Assembly Cache). Installers in the project will copied it to GAC automatically.
|
|
|
|
# How to build solution
|
|
The project is supported by Visual Studio 2015.
|
|
It also requires WIX Tools (http://wixtoolset.org/).
|
|
|
|
To make api for MetaTrader4 use MtApiInstaller and for MetaTrader5 use MtApi5Installer.
|
|
All installers will be placed in folder "[root]\build\installers\" and all *.dll files will be placed in "[root]\build\products\".
|
|
MQL files have been build to ex4 and stored into folders "mq4" for MetaTrader and "mq5" for MetaTrader5. They are ready to using in terminals.
|
|
If you change source code of MQL expert you have to recompile it with MetaEditor. In this case you need to copy files "hash.mqh" and "json.mqh" to MetaEditor include folder.
