I downloaded Dev-C++ from the Internet.
 
Since minGW is GCC ported to windows, the filename ../lib/libQuantLib-mgw-0_4_0.a is correct (not very suitable on windows in my opinion however).
I changed the project option parameters :
../lib/libQuantLib-mgw-0_4_0.a../../boost_1_33_1/stage/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework-mgw.libIt works perfectly well, as a static library. The only thing you need to do is to compile Boost for minGW.

Philippe

Hello, Thank you for your answer. I'm working on Windows, so I kept the .lib files as you said and changed the compiler environment. But I still have the same error... According to what I saw in the FAQ and on Internet, it's related to Dev-C++ and the mingw compiler which is used, but I don't see what to change to fix the problem. Cheers, Elise

 Hello, You can not change a .lib filename (present in windows environnement) to a .a static library/archive filename, on Unix environnement.I mean, .a filenames must not be present on windows environnement, and .lib names on Unix environnement. Rather than to change filenames (always a bad idea for me), you have to check your compiler options, name of dependent libraries like boost (.lib on windows) here and paths.Cheers,Philippe

 Hi,I've just installed QuantLib and I have a problem building the test-suite. I have built the examples without any problems. I use Dev-C++, the last version of Boost (1_35, but I have the same error with version 1_34) and QuantLib 0.9.0. At the beginning I got the message "cannot find -lboost_unit_test_framework-mgw-mt" so I changed the name of the library into "libboost_unit_test_framework-mgw-mt.a" (it was "boost_unit_test_framework-mgw34-mt-1_35.lib" before). Now I have the following message:   variable 'vtable for boost::unit_test::unit_test_log_t' can't be auto-imported. Please read the documentation for ld's --enable-auto-import for details. ...[Linker error] undefined reference to `WinMain@16' ld returned 1 exit status In Project Options>Parameters>Linker I have:../lib/libQuantLib-mgw-0_9_0.a-lboost_unit_test_framework-mgw-mtI spent a lot of time looking on Internet, but did not manage to make it work. I would be very grateful if you could help me.Thanks a lot.Cheers,Elise
