Re: [Quantlib-dev] print vs assign output in QuantLib-SWIG

[Luigi B. <lui...@gm...>]

Hi Tawanda,
    I'm not sure what you mean by "I get the same string when I assign".
Do you mean that if you write "x = ff:zeroRate(zDate,daycount,Annual)"
(or whatever the syntax for assignment is in Lua) then x holds the
string instead of an InterestRate instance?  If so, it looks like an
issue of the Lua wrappers to me...
