Error CT0002 Assembly must contain algo type
21 Feb 2023, 16:40

I am in the process of upgrading my codebase to `net6.0`

I have created some nuget packages containing utility code that I use across many indicators and robots. Under .net framework v4.x I simply referenced  cAlgo.API.dll.

However now when I reference cTrader.Automate nuget package under .net 6, these projects fail to build, giving the error above.

It would be a great help if you would separate out the API interface types into a separate package that can be referenced by any project.

solved

as you were - just found another forum post with the same problem from last year 

Never mind, figured out there's a property that can be set which bypasses the build.

Add the below snippet to your library .csproj file:

<PropertyGroup>
  <AlgoBuild>False</AlgoBuild>
</PropertyGroup>

Hope that helps someone else.
