Troubleshoot an open-source build

Resolve missing OxyPlot projects, undiscovered plugins, and providers that publish no market data.

Edition / plan open-source
VisualHFT open-source troubleshooting decision path for build, plugin discovery, and market-data problems
Start at the failing boundary: sibling dependencies, plugin output and discovery, or provider and symbol state.

The solution cannot find OxyPlot projects

VisualHFT.csproj uses sibling project references to the VisualHFT OxyPlot fork. Clone https://github.com/visualHFT/oxyplot.git beside this repository, as shown in Getting started, then reload the solution.

A plugin does not appear in VisualHFT

VisualHFT scans the directory containing VisualHFT.exe for plugin DLLs. Add the plugin project as a ProjectReference in VisualHFT.csproj, rebuild the solution, and verify that its output is next to the application executable. See Extending VisualHFT.

A provider shows no market data

Confirm that the connector is started, that its provider status is connected, and that the selected symbol matches the connector’s configured normalised symbol. Check the connector settings for the expected raw-to-normalised symbol mapping.
