Hello,
A) First use IMPORT WIZARD to create format definition that properly imports
the data. You may use error.log to see what went wrong if it does not import.
The return value only means if imported file and data definition file were found, successfully opened and processed.
Whenever data were added or not depends if format definition is OK.
Again see error.log (if $DEBUG 1 is specified) for details on what data lines caused problem during importing
B) Go to Tools->Plugins - you should see your plugin there. And no, nothing more is needed
than copying the plugin HOWEVER, if you compile your plugin on one machine and
move the DLL on second machine you should make sure that any libraries you use in
your DLL are present on target machine. AmiBroker uses for example MFC6.0 that is present in all windows after 2K and
installed during AB setup in any versions prior to that, and samples were prepared for Visual C++ 6 and they work
without hassle when compiled with VC6.
Now if you compile your DLL with
any newer version (like VC7 or .NET or 2005) you should be aware that they produce
DLLs that refer to newer versions of libraries that are usually NOT present on plain Windows installations
and you need to create the setup yourself or link statically to any libraries you use.
Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko
