Error messages returned by quantlib exceptions

[Luca Berardi]

Hi all,

I recently moved from Visual C++ 6.0 to Visual C++ 7.1 (.Net 2003). I noticed
that error messages returned by quantlib exceptions (namely by means of the
macros QL_REQUIRE and QL_FAIL), in addition to the string set by the user,
have a very long prefix and sometimes are truncated.
Is it possible to restore the old format, i.e. the one with only the error
message set by the user (and maybe the source file with the line number too)?

Thanks in advance.

Luca

Yes. You have to edit errors.cpp and remove from the two  
implementations of the format() function the lines:

         if (function != "(unknown)")
             msg << function << ": ";

I'll try and provide a configuration option in next release.

Later,
