Re:Visual C++ 2005 Express (beta)

[Christian Thorup]

Actually i think i've pinpointed the problem, the submitted
VC8 Solution 'QuantLib_vc8.sln' does not work properly.
I can't compile anyhting using the vc8 solution. Another
thing with the VC8 solution is that it fails to load the
testsuite.

Only when i use the VC6 workspace i can compile the
QuantLib and QuantLibFunctions but then i can not compile
the american, european, swap etc becuase it fails to link.

If anyone could help me out with this VC8 problem i have
i would be really grateful. In my previous post i've tried a
mix of VC6 and VC8 compilations to no use, so i guess you
can disregard that post totally.

OS system: Windows XP Professional SP2
compiler: Visual C++ 2005 Beta 2
Boost version: boost_1_32_0

Christian,
        actually I don't know whether or not someone ever tried  
compiling the thing with beta 2---as far as I know, the vc8 solution  
was created with beta 1. Something might have changed between the  
releases which broke the build, or maybe the support for vc8 was just  
preliminary (it's a beta after all...)

May you give a few details of the failure? It is compilation errors, or  
something else?

Later,
        Luigi

Christian,
        it seems that Boost doesn't yet support VC++8---release 1.32  
probably came out before the public beta (or at least beta 2.) They'll  
probably fix the issue in 1.33; last I heard, they had frozen the  
repository and were preparing for release.

Later,
        Luigi

I met similar problem in vc8 before. I remember there is some default
option in the solution properties needs to be changed. Try
properties->C/C++->Language->Disable Language Extensions, should
choose No instead of Yes. (or the other way).
