Quantlib Addin Calc and Openoffice 2.1

[ecjbosu (Bugzilla)]

Eric,

I built quantlibaddin-calc for openoffice 2.1 on my redhat linux box
tonight and it worked.  This is great. I thought you might like to know
this.  One note, on my redhat system the pythonpath env variable does
not exist so appending the gensrc_dir/import to it cause me problems.  I
ended up modifying my profile.d env script for setting the gensrc_dir
variable to include creating the pythonpath variable with only
$gensrc_dir/imports.

I noticed that the example spreadsheet has not been updated to all the
new function names, but if you tinker with dates and fix the qlnpv names
to qlinstrumentnpv they work.

The docs also have the QuantlibXXXXX.rdb named referencing the Windows
version.  A note to the linux people to remove the windows versioning
from the name would be nice

Also,  could you put in the installation documentation a reminder for
people to run the openoffice sdk env setup script so idlc will not toss
the "can't find libreg.so" error.  I always miss this when I upgrade
openoffice and upgrade Quantlib.

Also, if anyone would like them.  I have profile.d scripts to set the
required gensrc,openoffice, and openofficesdk env variables for redhat
linux.  This makes my life easier. Let me know and I will post them.

Great job.

Joe

Hi Joe,

Indeed I do appreciate your update.  I didn't have time to test the
Calc build for the 0.4.0 release and I'm happy to hear that it works.

Regarding the other changes you mentioned I'll commit these to CVS for
inclusion in the next release.

Regards,
Eric
