Quantlib & Visual Studio 2008

[hughchristensen]

Trying to get Quantlib 0.9.0 compiling in Visual Studio 2008.

 

I convert the provided “QuantLib_vc8.sln” from 2005 to 2008.

 

I download BOOST and reference the path for the header’s.

 

I get an error message saying the library doesn’t support this complier. What am I doing wrong?

 

I note what the it says at: http://quantlib.org/reference/config.html

 

And see that in auto_link.hpp

 

// select toolset:

#if (_MSC_VER < 1310)

#  error "unsupported Microsoft compiler"

#elif (_MSC_VER == 1310)

#  define QL_LIB_TOOLSET "vc71"

#elif (_MSC_VER == 1400)

#  define QL_LIB_TOOLSET "vc80"

#elif (_MSC_VER == 1500)

#  define QL_LIB_TOOLSET "vc90"

 

The header config.msvc.hpp also warns me about _MSC_VER >= 1300

 

Any help gratefully received.

Is the error from a QuantLib header or a Boost one? What's the complete
error message?

Here are links to detailed instructions on how to build boost 1.34.1 and
quantlib 0.9.0 using Visual Studio 2008 Express. If you think anything should be
added or clarified in these instructions, please let me know so that I can make
improvements.

Does anyone know when the VS 2008 compatible versions of quantlib and Boost
are being released?

Thanks

Hugh

Hi Hugh

>From what I've read, Boost's next release should be available in a
couple of months, maybe less, assuming the regression testing goes ok.
For the moment the testing for vs 9.0 seems to be ok. (Check boost's
mailing list and regression test advancement for a more precise idea of
when will the next release be available)

Quantlib next release (0.9.5) should be available in April-May. Assuming
Boost has become VS 9.0 compatible, and that there is no big
compatibility problems between Boost and Quantlib, this version should
be VS 9.0 compatible. If some problems appears or if Boost is still not
out (doubtful but we never know), we may have to wait until summer for a
0.9.9 version.

In the mean time, the two links you provided explains just perfectly and
in a very simple way how to build boost and quantlib for VS 9.0.

Amicalement,
Fabrice
