I'm happy about this, coz it's would be a very useful tools for mt4 programming but i have technical problem to run the sample scripts: if i test it in strategy tester, the metatrader shooting down...

Those warnings just say that you got obsolete code. Code which is never used somewhere in the file and can be removed without changing the logic of the algorithm. As long as you just got warning and no errors there is nothing to worry about.
If you open the file and delete those 4 functions the warnings will go away.

Thank You, i removed the 4 functions, and no warnings.
The strategy tester is still off the terminal; i'll try it tomorrow with real ticks.

You are right except if the file is a library. The functions may be not used in the file but may be called by another file.

Yes that's true. Since I work with my own libraries alot I get those warnings frequently. Most of the time if you don't want to clean up the code just leave that stuff in. You won't loose any performance and maybe those functions can be useful later on.

Warnings don't change the way a code works they might be good to remember you that a statement is missing somewhere but code doesn't work the way you want it's not because of that particular error.

I am in contact with the developer.
He knows about the problem with the strategy tester and will fix it as soon as possible.

Outside the strategy tester on real charts the mt4gui works without problems.
All the reported problems have been solved.

I am creating purchase and sale buttons, I have created with mt4gui several textfield or textbox where the lot will be written, take profit, stoploss. My question is that I can not link what is in the textfield with the purchase and sale order code. I want the variable lot, read what's inside the lot box. And so with take profit and stop loss.
