Problem with the Test_Suit Build

[victor gonzalez-3]

Dear Sirs,

 

Can you please let me know the reason for the error below when trying to build the testsuite project? I guess I can not continue with the full installation following the build tutorial in the quantlib webpage, without fixing this linking error first. By the way I have the Boost installation on my C drive with the folders include and libs. In the latter, I noticed the lib file reported by the build process in the error below is missing from the libs folder.

 

------ Build started: Project: testsuite, Configuration: Release Win32 ------

Linking...

LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'libboost_unit_test_framework-vc80-mt-s-1_33_1.lib'

Build log was saved at "file://c:\Projects\QuantLib-0.3.13\test-suite\build\vc80\Release\BuildLog.htm"

testsuite - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)

========== Build: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 1 up-to-date, 0 skipped ==========

 

 

I look forward to hearing from you.

 

Mr. Victor Gonzalez

You don't have the needed Boost library.

Do you have any libboost_unit_test_framework-* in the Boost libs  
folder, or none at all? How did you compile and install Boost?

Later,
