Hi,

Thanks in advance.

This is Deb, new to QuantLib and I need your assistance to install QuantLib.

1. Boost

I have downloaded binary file  boost_1_57_0-msvc-12.0-64

I have installed in G:\boost_1_57_0

2. QuantLib.

I have downloaded QuantLib-1.5.zip.

I have extracted the files in G:\QuantLib\QuantLib-1.5

3. VC++

I have checked my Control Panel\Programs\Programs and Features and I see

- Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Redistributable (x64)
- Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable (x64)

are they Runtime programs?

Still I need to install Microsoft Visual Express?

If yes, which one (compatible with above versions of boost and QuantLib)?

- Express 2013 for Windows Desktop
- Express 2013 for Windows
- Any other

Once again, thank you very much for the time you have given.

Regards,

Deb
