WG: VC++2008 / Excel 2003 / QLXL

interestingly, if I let VC++2008 convert the vc8 project file
"QuantLibXL_full_vc8" to version 9, it works. So, problem solved. (since
the source files are exactly the same, there must be some setting in the
version 9 project file "QuantLibXL_full_vc9", which causes problems?!)

VC++2008 / Excel 2003 / QLXL

Hi, I compile QL / QLXL 0.9.7 with MSVC++2008 (Boost is 1.37.0). There does
not seem to be any problems. However, the resulting XLL can not be loaded
in Excel 2003 (SP3). I get an error message "not a valid XLL". Did anybody
test this configuration? Does an upgrade of any of the components help
perhaps? Thank you, Peter

I'm using VC++2008 and by trial and error I discovered that telling the linker
to generate a manifest file (/MANIFEST) the xll will work

Re: WG: VC++2008 / Excel 2003 / QLXL

I compared the Linker Command Line Strings for both versions. Indeed in the
vc9 project file, no manifest file is generated, in the vc8 file it is
generated.
So, this will be the reason. Perhaps this should be adjusted in one of the
upcoming distributions?
Thank you, best regards
Peter

...This is now fixed in the source code repository (svn trunk) for
inclusion in the next release.

Apologies for the absurdly late response and thanks for the heads up.

Kind Regards,
Eric
