Error building QuantLib under MinGW

I am building QuantLib under MinGW, but at some point it gives me the following
error message:

libtool: link: ERROR: object name conflicts:
.libs/libMarketModelsProducts.lax/libMarketModelsProductsMultiStep.a//c/QUANTL~1.14/ql/MarketModels/Products/MultiStep/.libs/libMarketModelsProductsMultiStep.a

Can anyone enlighten me on how I can fix that?

Cheers,

Cyril

Cyril,
apologies for the delay. I haven't seen your post until today (it was
confined into purgatory by the Sourceforge filters.)

What version of QuantLib are you building?

Later,
Luigi

Re: Error building QuantLib under MinGW

Luigi,

I am trying to build QuantLib 0.4.0 using gcc version 3.4.2 and Boost
1.34.0 under msys 1.0.10.

Regards,

Cyril

Cyril,
did you try QuantLib 0.8.1? Did you have better luck?

Luigi

Re: Error building QuantLib under MinGW

Luigi,

I have tried QuantLib 0.8.0 with the same result as before :(

Now I am taking a deep breath before trying it with QuantLib 0.8.1,
although I suspect the problem is somewhere in my MSYS/MinGW setup
rather than in QuantLib.

Has anyone out there tried to build QuantLib 0.8.1 under MinGW?

Cheers,

Cyril

Never mind. The only difference between 0.8.0 and 0.8.1 is in better
autodetection of Boost shared libraries when ./configure is run. If
0.8.0 was already able to find them on your machine, you don't need to
upgrade.

Re: Error building QuantLib under MinGW

Luigi,

I finally succeeded in compiling QuantLib under MinGW. I do not know
what exactly was wrong with my previous attempt; most likely, MinGW
misconfiguration.

Below I outline the procedure that worked for me. I am using QuantLib 0.8.1 and
Boost 1.34.0.

1. Install MinGW using MinGW installer version 5.1.3
(available from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2435)
Select "Candidate" release and install to c:\mingw

2. Install MSYS using MSYS installer version 1.0.10.
Install to c:\msys\1.0

3. Unpack Boost to c:\boost_1_34_0

4. Unpack QuantLib to c:\quantlib-0.8.1

5. Add c:\mingw and c:\msys\1.0 to the path.

6. Open command prompt in c:\quantlib-0.8.1 and type:
sh
./configure --with-boost-include=/c/boost_1_34_0 --with-gnu-ld
make
make install

The latter gives an error message at make install-exec-hook,
ignore it.

The libs libQuantLib.a and libQuantLib.la are in /usr/local/lib.

Regards,

Cyril

Thanks---I'll try and make it available from the site.

where is /usr/local/lib supposed to be in my Windows system?

have you tried to build the test-suite too? (you willl need to build
boost before)

thank you

Re: Error building QuantLib under MinGW

Hi Nando,

On my PC, where MSYS is installed to c:\msys\1.0,
/usr/local/lib is mapped to c:\msys\1.0\local\lib

You can get there by opening command prompt (cmd)
and typing

sh
cd /usr/local/lib

I did not try to build the test suite (I had not built Boost,
so I could not build test suite anyway)..

Cheers,

Cyril
