[Quantlib-dev] Compiling Quantlib for .NET

[Ahmad M. <ahm...@gm...>]

Good day Luigi,

I have spotted this old thread on Wilmot (
http://www.wilmott.com/messageview.cfm?catid=10&threadid=36148) regarding
"Compiling Quantlib to .NET MIL". Are those comments still valid? Is it
possible to compile Quantlib using the /clr option. I have tried this and
the the compilation was successful albeit with a few warnings. However, I
was not able to  use the resultant binary  in a C# project? Is this even
possible? Would you suggest this? I think the question also what are the
other compilations options available for QL for a .Net environment?

I have successfully used the C# SWIG bindings and have been able to call
into the QL library. I am looking for alternatives ways to use QL within a
.Net environment. (The C# port of the QuantLib(qlnet.org) is not actively
maintained, so that is not an option)

Some background - the plan is to use QL within a Windows-based client-server
environment (and possible a standalone server-side only application for
batch processing). Are there any gotcha's that you may be aware of that I
need to know?

Your help/advice on this will be highly appreciated. I am complete C++ noob,
so please forgive some of the naive questions. There also does not seem to
be much information apart from the C# SWIG options for QuantLib.

Regards,
