error: unknown microsoft compiler

[simoncourtenage]

Hi,

I've built and installed QuantLib 1.0.1 with Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Express.  I'm trying to get the simple example code from this page http://quantlib.org/install/vc9.shtml up and running.  However, when I try to build the sample project QuantLibTest, I get the following error message:

C:\Program Files\QuantLib-1.0.1\QuantLib-1.0.1\ql/config.msvc.hpp(93): fatal error C1189: #error :  "unknown Microsoft compiler"

Sorry if there is an obvious fix, but I'm a *nix/g++ person, so this is kind of a new world for me ;)

Thanks

Simon

Hi Simon,
        Visual C++ Express 2010 wasn't out yet (or I wasn't aware of it) when
we packaged the release, so it's not recognized.  May you try applying
the attached patch to ql/config.msvc.hpp and see whether it works?

Thanks,
        Luigi

Luigi what if we replace in trunk\QuantLib\ql\config.msvc.hpp (93)

#  error "unknown Microsoft compiler"

with

#  pragma message("untested Microsoft compiler")

The latter would not stop compilation.
Oh.. it would also be quite effective in alerting the user since it t
would be displayed thousands of time... :-D
