Building QuantLib with 

    ./configure --disable-shared

will only build a static library, and the linker will include in your program the parts that it needs.

Hi,

I am trying to write a small program to calculate risk. 
I am using very limited Classes/variables/methods of the Qualtib library (like Quantlib::BlackCalculator, Quantlib::blackFormulaImpliedStdDev, and exception class like Quantlib::Error).
While building I am configuring with the --enable-sessions options [different instances for different sessions). 

However I see that the default size of the libQuantlib.so.0 compiles to around ~350 MB, which is kind of an overkill for my program. (Also copying the program along with library is a big pain). 

Is there any way I can build a part of the source which will reduce the size of the library and still contain the above libraries/methods/classes. 
I can see that the ./configure --help does give an options like --with-PACKAGE . Is  there some way I can build a part of the source code to achieve my goal. 


I couldnt locate anything while searching. Any help/pointers would be appreciated. 

thanks,
Parag
