Hi,
 
I'm new to Quantlib, and need some advice on how to build the Test-Suite executables. I'm running Ubuntu 6.06, and have built the boost libraries, and Quantlib, and have been able to compile up the examples (Swap, BermudanSwaption, ConvertibleBonds etc) and execute and benchmark these just fine.
 
Now I'd like to get the EuropeanOption code working, and I can see an example of this under test-suite, and I see a EuropeanOption.cpp and the .o file, but no executable? Should I be able to build a standalone .exe?
 
Could someone pls put me out of my misery, and tell me what I'm doing wrong? - thanks.
 
Regards
Peter Moreton
 
PS: Please note that I'm also new to Linux, (first used this yesterday!) so having to learn fast! - apologies if I'm asking about something really obvious ....
