Hi Eric,
[I'm CCing QuantLib-dev and Jody Goldberg]
I've imported ObjectHandler as a separate module in the CVS. In order to
reflect this change we could split the QuEP you've submitted into two
separate QuEPs, one dedicated to ObjectHandler and the other to the rest.
I've added Borland, VC7, and Dev-C++MinGW support and/or project files for
ObjectHandler. I've added the copyright notice (please confirm that I've
spelled your name right) plus a couple of minor files and fixes.
It look like your ObjectHandler prototype is almost ready for a first
release. I might have introduced some problems with the *nix Makefile, but
you can check it out and fix them. Hopefully we could autoconf the project
before the release, add some Doxygen documentation, and I would provide a
Win32 installer.
As for the rest: I've renamed your ObjectClassLibrary as QuantLibAddin. The
CVS QuantLibAddin module includes the QuantLibAddin library plus all the
Addins and Clients (C++, Calc, and Excel). I've added Borland, VC7, and
Dev-C++MinGW (partial) support and/or project files, (some) copyright
notice, and some minor files and fixes. The code is updated to work with
the forthcoming 0.3.8 release and the current CVS trunk.
Once again I might have introduced some problems with the *nix Makefiles:
please check them.
I've already granted you write access to the CVS, so please use the CVS
code base for any further development. When we'll publish the QuEPs we will
be referring to QuantLib 0.3.8, and the latest version of your code will be
available in the CVS for public inspections.
BTW I'm going to add
[hidden email] to the QuantLib-dev mailing list.
Is it ok for you? Would you prefer a different address?
How are you managing the QuantLib-cvs traffic ? ;-)
Jody: thank you for any help you can provide for Gnumeric. Are you
interested in joining the QuantLib-dev mailing list? Do you plan to
personally contribute to the Gnumeric version of the QuantLibAddin?

I do agree that autogeneration is the way forward. I'm not sure
Python+config_file is the best approach, but I'm not an expert. What about
IDL definition and IDL compilers?
thank you very much for your contribution
ciao -- Nando
