Summary: hard to invoke method McPricer::value()

Initial Comment:
It's not a real bug, but I think it should be better
to change the prototype of the methods value() of the
class McPricer because to call the method

McPricer::value(size_t samples)

you need to write

object_Mc_Pricer.value(size_t(100));

My compiler (the free Borland line compiler) tells me
that if I write

object_Mc_Pricer.value(100);

is ambiguos with McPricer::value(double, size_t);

thank you

This have been already fixed in the CVS, so the next
release has (will have) two different methods:
//! add samples until the required tolerance is reached
double value(double tolerance,
             Size maxSample = QL_MAX_INT) const;
//! simulate a fixed number of samples
double valueWithSamples(Size samples) const;

thank you
