Help - Can't build QuantlibAddin

[Balaji Subramanian]

Hi,
 
I am trying to build Quantlib Addin.
 
I am following the instructions as specified in "Build Tutorial" of QuantLibAddin. All steps prior to "Install and Build QuantLibAddin" were successfully completed. But when I start  building QuantLibAddin (which is the last one before one could actually start using the tool), I get many errors most of them related to missing file.
 
The error msg that I get are:
 
----------------------
 
NMAKE : fatal error U1073: don't know how to make 'C:\Program'
Stop.
Project : error PRJ0019: A tool returned an error code from "Performing Makefile project actions"
Build log was saved at "file://c:\Program Files\QuantLibAddin-0.3.14\gensrc\build\vc\BuildLog.htm"
gensrc - 2 error(s), 0 warning(s)
------ Build started: Project: QuantLibObjects, Configuration: Release Win32 ------
Compiling...

capletvolstructure.cpp
 
----------------------------------
 
When I checked the ql\TermStructures, I don't find these files.

Environment/Install  information:
IDE : MS Visual C++ 2005
Quantlib Version : QuantLib-0.4.0
Quantlib Xl Version : QuantLibXL-src-0.3.14
Quantlib Addin Version : QuantLibAddin-0.3.14
 
Could some one in the group help in resolving this.

Pls let me know if you need additional information.
 
Any help is greatly appreciated.
 
Rgds,
Balaji.

Hi Balaji,

That's the start of your problems.  gensrc is failing to create the
source code for the addins, so all the subsequent failures occur
because the autogenerated files are missing.

Looks like the build is getting confused by spaces in pathnames, it's
trying to reference a file under 'C:\Program Files' and crashes on
'C:\Program'.  I haven't seen that before, what version of Windows are
you running?

The command that is failing is contained in file
QuantLibAddin\gensrc\Makefile.vc.  You need to identify which line is
trying to reference a file under 'C:\Program Files', some
possibilities include

    !INCLUDE $(GENSRC_DIR)\dependencies.vc

    SCRIPT=scripts\gensrc.py

    set PYTHONPATH=$(PYTHONPATH);$(GENSRC_DIR)\import

Depending on how you set up your environment.  What is it that you
installed under 'C:\Program Files' - python? gensrc? QuantLibAddin?

You might be able to fix the problem by enclosing the offending
pathname in quotes e.g.

    !INCLUDE "$(GENSRC_DIR)\dependencies.vc"

Though I did some quick tests on my machine (XP SP2) and it seems to
handle spaces in pathnames OK without quotes.

Otherwise you could try getting gensrc to run at the DOS command line.
 Ensure that GENSRC_DIR is set correctly, then cd to
QuantLibAddin\gensrc and do something like

"C:\Python25\python.exe" ".\scripts\gensrc.py" "-a"

QuantLibAddin/QuantLibXL version 0.3.14 requires QuantLib version
0.3.14 and will not build against QuantLib version 0.4.0.

QLA/QLXL version 0.4.0 will be released in the next day or two.

Eric
