Count Down Timer

[pitrader 10]

I have a countdown timer that was written for TS but it will not compile for MC. I have the code below if somebody can help me to get it to compile.

 

Thanks

This code is a simple bar countdown timer for minute bars.

using elsystem;

 

vars: int TXID(0),

 

IntrabarPersist Countdown_Text(" time"),

 

IntrabarPersist mins(0), IntrabarPersist secs(0),

IntrabarPersist mins_str(""), IntrabarPersist secs_str(""),

Timer Timer(null);

 

 

//This is the Timer event. Note that we've seperated out the 'time left in bar' calculation,

// and the 'display text' calculation into their own methods. And then we call them from

// this event. This is good coding practice.

method void Timer1_Elapsed( Object sender, TimerElapsedEventArgs args )

begin

Calc_Time_Remaining(); //Calculate the amount of time remaining

 

Display_Text(); //Display the amount of time remaining

end;

 

 

//Calculate the amount of time remaining in the bar

// This is reasonably complex, but isn't particularly relevant to how the Timer object works

// so you don't need to understand it

method void Calc_Time_Remaining()

begin

//If its the end of a bar then set the countdown to the bar interval

if BarStatus(1) = 2 then begin

mins = BarInterval;

secs = 0;

 

Guess = false;

 

//We're turning the time off and on here just to sync it correctly with the bar end

Timer1.Enable = false;

Timer1.Enable = true;

end

//This is our first guess at the bar time, before we have a bar end to sync properly.

// It uses your computer clock to work out roughly how much time is left in a bar.

else if Guess then begin

mins = time - CurrentTime;

secs = 60 - SecondsFromDateTime(ComputerDateTime);

if secs = 60 then secs = 0;

if secs > 0 then mins = mins - 1;

end

//Countdown our timer

else begin

secs = secs - Countdown_seconds;

if secs < 0 then begin

 

secs = 9;

end;

end;

 

//Set our Countdown_Text variable to the correct string

 

secs_str = NumToStr(secs, 0);

if strlen(secs_str) = 1 then secs_str = "0" + secs_str;

Countdown_Text = " " + mins_str +":" + secs_str;

end;

 

 

 

//Display our countdown text

method void Display_Text()

begin

Text_SetString(TXID, Countdown_Text);

Text_SetLocation(TXID, date, time, Close);

Text_SetStyle(TXID, 0, 2);

Text_SetColor(TXID, yellow);

end;

//Create the Timer, set it to update every second, but don't start it yet

end;

 

 

//When the first real-time tick arrives...

if GetAppInfo(aiRealTimeCalc) = 1 then begin

//...start the Timer

Timer1.Enable = true;

 

//Set the amount of time left in a bar at the end of every bar

if BarStatus(1) = 2 then begin

Calc_Time_Remaining();

end;

end;

 

Display_Text();
