Error LNK1104 - cannot open file 'QuantLib-vc140-mt-s.lib'

Hi

I get the below error when i tried to build QuantLibXL_basic_vc12.sln using VisualStudio2017 on a Windows10 machine.

Error LNK1104 cannot open file 'QuantLib-vc140-mt-s.lib' QuantLibXLStatic C:\local\QuantLib\QuantLibXL\qlxl\LINK 1

Below is the information from the last build state. I got a pop-up to do an auto upgrade to v141 toolset when i first loaded the solution. I see a lib file 'QuantLib--mt-s.lib' generated but it is missing the 'vc140' string which the linker is looking for. Can someone please help resolve this error?

#TargetFrameworkVersion=v4.0:PlatformToolSet=v141:EnableManagedIncrementalBuild=false:VCToolArchitecture=Native32Bit:WindowsTargetPlatformVersion=8.1
Release (static runtime)|Win32|C:\local\QuantLib\QuantLibXL\|

Thanks,

Mario Marra

It might not be an optimal solution but have you tried to rename the library to 'QuantLib-vc140-mt-s.lib'?

Yes, that would work. The library was named incorrectly because your QuantLib version doesn't support VS2017 yet, but you can rename it manually.

Re: Error LNK1104 - cannot open file 'QuantLib-vc140-mt-s.lib'

Thanks Mario & Luigi

I tried after renaming the file to QuantLib-vc140-mt-s.lib and this time the linker gave the same error looking for QuantLib--mt-s.lib. So i made a copy of it to the original QuantLib--mt-s.lib and tried to build with both the lib files. This time I didn't get that error.

However, i got a whole bunch of linking errors related to Boost library such as below. All of my boost library files have *-vc141-mt-gd-1_64.lib such as boost_coroutine-vc141-mt-gd-1_64.lib.

Error LNK2001 unresolved external symbol "public: static void __cdecl boost::archive::detail::archive_serializer_map<class boost::archive::xml_iarchive>::erase(class boost::archive::detail::basic_serializer const *)" (?erase@?$archive_serializer_map@Vxml_iarchive@archive@boost@@@detail@archive@boost@@SAXPBVbasic_serializer@234@@Z) QuantLibXLStatic C:\local\QuantLib\QuantLibXL\qlxl\QuantLibObjects-vc120-mt-s-1_8_0.lib(serialization_oh.obj) 1

I am going to try using an older version of boost libraries and see if it works. Hope i am on the right track.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi all,

I guess I had the same problem, therefore I use this loop. Sorry in advance if I'm wrong.

While opening QuantLib_vc14.sln the first time, VS suggested to upgrade sdk from 8.1 to 10.x and platform to v141. I agreed.

I built QuantLib 1.9.2 in Visual Studio 2017. Boost 1.63.

Library built correctly but test cases failed due to the link error in the subject of this thread.

I modified QuantLib files accordingly to commit: https://github.com/lballabio/QuantLib/commit/5c5eaba5359bc0d946ee3e8f05a9f1e401211176 (except for gitignore).

QuantLib 1.9.2 built successfully in VS 2017 and all test cases passed.

Hope this could help.

Best,

William

Re: Error LNK1104 - cannot open file 'QuantLib-vc140-mt-s.lib'

Hi William,

I incorporated your changes and it produced QuantLib-vc141-mt-gd.lib file. However, the linker gave me the following error:

2>libboost_unit_test_framework-vc141-mt-gd-1_64.lib(test_tree.obj) : fatal error LNK1112: module machine type 'x64' conflicts with target machine type 'X86'
2>Done building project "testsuite.vcxproj" -- FAILED.

Do i need to do any separate build for boost binaries? I used the installer for boost_1_64_0.

Thanks

Luigi Ballabio

Re: Error LNK1104 - cannot open file 'QuantLib-vc140-mt-s.lib'

Visual Studio 2017 will be supported in QuantLib 1.10, out shortly. If you want to try it before release, you can check it out from the v1.10.x branch on GitHub.
