can not compile using provided code

[PAEdwards]

Hi all

I am a rookie in QuantLib and Unix, so please accept my apology for this entry level question.

I just follow the instructions listed on QuantLib install website

http://quantlib.org/install/macosx.shtml

and successfully (I hope so) install Boost 1.50.0 and QuantLib 1.0.1 on a Mac OS X 10.6 .   After that I got trouble in compiling the provided example:

g++ -I/opt/local/include/ -I/opt/local/include/boost BermudanSwaption.cpp \
    -o bermudanswaption -L/opt/local/lib/ -lQuantLib

and got a huge error message looks like:

"Undefined symbols:
  "boost::unit_test::test_suite::add(boost::unit_test::test_unit*, unsigned long, unsigned int)", referenced from:
      BermudanSwaptionTest::suite()      in BermudanSwaption.o
  "boost::unit_test::unit_test_log_t::operator()(boost::unit_test::log_level)", referenced from:
      BermudanSwaptionTest::testCachedValues()       in BermudanSwaption.o
  "boost::test_tools::tt_detail::check_impl(boost::test_tools::predicate_result const&, boost::unit_test::lazy_ostream const&, boost::unit_test::basic_cstring<char const>, unsigned long, boost::test_tools::tt_detail::tool_level, boost::test_tools::tt_detail::check_type, unsigned long, ...)", referenced from:
      BermudanSwaptionTest::testCachedValues()       in BermudanSwaption.o".........
......
......

Can any one help to figure out what happened here? Thank you very much for your help!

Hi,
    I hope you solved this already (I'm reading this only now).
Anyway: from the error messages, it seems that you're not compiling
the example (the one in the Examples/BermudanSwaption folder) but the
file containing the test suite for the swaptions (which is in the
test-suite folder).  The one you're using is not supposed to be
compiled by itself, but together with the other files in the same
folder; and furthermore, it needs the Boost unit-test library, which
you're not passing to the compiler.  If you really want to run the
test suite, it was already compiled when you ran "make"; if you want
the example instead, your command line should work if you run it in
the right folder.
