Re: Cant compile equityoption.cpp

[Max Giolitti]

Ah, amateur mistake. This works now. Thanks for putting up with my questions. My NEXT problem is that the demo program Equityoption.cpp gives me an error:

(from .cpp)
        boost::shared_ptr<StrikedTypePayoff> payoff(
                                        new PlainVanillaPayoff(type, strike));

    boost::shared_ptr<StochasticProcess> stochasticProcess(
                 new BlackScholesMertonProcess(underlyingH, flatDividendTS,
                                               flatTermStructure, flatVolTS));

EquityOption.cpp: In function ‘int main(int, char**)’:
EquityOption.cpp:113: error: expected type-specifier before ‘BlackScholesMertonProcess’
EquityOption.cpp:113: error: expected `)' before ‘BlackScholesMertonProcess’
/usr/include/boost/shared_ptr.hpp: In constructor ‘boost::shared_ptr<T>::shared_ptr(Y*) [with Y = int, T = QuantLib::StochasticProcess]’:
EquityOption.cpp:114:   instantiated from here
/usr/include/boost/shared_ptr.hpp:124: error: cannot convert ‘int*’ to ‘QuantLib::StochasticProcess*’ in initialization

My objective is to get QuantLib working using python, but let me try to figure SWIG out on my own.
Thx for your help!

You have to tell the compiler to link QuantLib with your executable.
Change the above into
g++ -o hello hello.cpp -lQuantLib
