Re: [Quantlib-dev] [Quantlib-users] Using QuantLibXL

[Eric E. <eri...@na...>]

Hi Slava,

Picking up the thread that started in quantlib-users...

The error you reported initially - "QuantLibXL-vc80-MT-S-0_9_5.xll is not a
valid add-in" - this was a known problem, which I was observing on my machine,
and which was resolved by svn revision 15471.  Can we take a second to make
sure you got the fix?

I'm slightly confused when you talk about downloads, and about updating some
projects and not others.

We're working with the latest snapshot of the svn trunk.  Normally you would
use Tortoise SVN to do svn checkout from

    https://quantlib.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/quantlib/trunk

To a directory on your hard drive e.g.

    C:\projects\trunk

The fix as I mentioned was svn revision 15471 which was applied Thursday.  So
what you should now do is right click on your local root directory e.g.
C:\projects\trunk and do svn update.  This brings your local copy of the trunk
up to date, which at the time of this writing is revision 15476.

You would then rebuild the solution.  For this particular fix an incremental
rebuild should suffice, a full rebuild isn't required.

Those messages are from the dependency walker and can be ignored, see the FAQ
for more info:

More important, when you start Excel and load QuantLibXL-vc80-mt-s-0_9_5.xll,
do you still get a run time error?

I assume you're using the XLL on the same machine on which it was compiled?

Eric
