Configure error QL 0.3.7

[Michael Oczkowski]

I am trying to install QuantLib v. 0.3.7 under Cygwin using Boost 1.31.0
and gcc 3.3.1.  After installing Boost using default settings, running
configure with the default settings for QuantLib ends in the following
error (from config.log):

configure:24957: checking for Boost development files
configure:24978: g++ -c -g -O2 conftest.cc >&5
conftest.cc:62:29: boost/version.hpp: No such file or directory
conftest.cc:63:37: boost/shared_ptr.hpp: No such file or directory
conftest.cc:64:33: boost/assert.hpp: No such file or directory
conftest.cc:65:43: boost/current_function.hpp: No such file or directory
configure:24984: $1 = 1
configure: failed program was:
...
#include <boost/version.hpp>
...
configure:25004: result: no
configure:25006: error: Boost development files not found


This version of boost installs the header files by default in
/usr/local/include/boost-1_31/boost

and the library files in
/usr/local/lib

Any suggestions on how I can get configure to find the Boost installation?

There are two possible solutions for this.  Either make a symbolic link from
/usr/local/include/boost-1_31/boost to /usr/local/include/boost or modify the
CPPFLAGS environment variable to include -I /usr/local/include/boost-1_31 (ie.
type "export CPPFLAGS=-I /usr/local/include/boost-1_31".

Mark.

I tried "export CPPFLAGS=-I /usr/local/include/boost-1_31" but then
another error came up relating to linking to one of the libraries.  Doing
"export CPPFLAGS=-I /usr/local/include/boost-1_31 -L /usr/local/lib" did
the trick.

Thanks!

OK, well that worked for the configure, but not for the make!  So I
started over and defined

export CPPFLAGS="-I /usr/local/include/boost-1_31"
export LDFLAGS="-L /usr/local/lib"

Then configure worked fine and make made it until test_suite before
mysteriously failing.  A line of the output showed
g++ -g -O2 /usr/local/bin -o quantlib-test-suite.exe ...

Of course it complained that /usr/local/bin is a directory.  As it turns
out, you have to remove the space in the definition of LDFLAGS?!  So,
removing the space from the LDFLAGS in the Makefile under test-suite/ made
it work!  Or you could just define in the beginning

export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib"

Then the failed line above became
g++ -g -O2 -o quantlib-test-suite.exe *.o -L/usr/local/lib -lboost...

I'm not a *nix guy, so I cannot really help you. Anyway here's my 0.02$:
did you compile Boost?

The Boost header files are enough for QuantLib and its examples, NOT enough
for the QuantLib test-suite. The test-suite is based on the Boost Unit Test
framework, which needs to be compiled.

On a related note I would appreciate if you could provide a newbie tutorial
on how to compile QuantLib under Win32+cygwin. I think the cygwin "bridge"
would be a great opportunity for those who would consider moving from Win32
to *nix, or simply want to check their code with gcc.

Could you elaborate on the specific error that its giving you.  ie.  missing
libboost_unit_test_suite.so?  Also how did you install boost?  From rpms, debs?
