Re: [Quantlib-dev] Calc Addin under Linux for QuantLibAddin-1.5.0

[<ja...@fr...>]

Hello again Lars,
Sorry for the blackout; I was struggling with it and had not much to contribute with. But your last branch did help me a lot and save me quite a bit of time an effort. A big thank you.

I am building it ok on Linux and running the worksheets. I am providing a pedestrian Makefile for it. I can not do it with Makefile.oo as it is now. The Makefile is very basic but the idea is that eventually both Makefiles merge into a proper am file. It just provides a dynamic linked lib and installs it. Prerequisites on the environment are the same ones you mention.

There are a couple of differences. I dont install the way you do (my system needs sudo for that); I use a component file and my manifest file is fixed (this is the only collision I see with your make). Its similar to the standard add-in example in the uno sdk. Also the way I generate from the idl has a few unnecessary dependences, its also taken from the example.

I am adding this into github.com/japari/quantlib/tree/Calc_linuxmake This is a branch that I created from the PR you sent to Eric but when I uploaded to GitHub it only lets me PR to Erics fork. Can you take the changes into your branch please? I prefer that rather than issuing a PR to Eric.

Is there anyone working on this on Windows?

Best
Pepe

My TODO list (comments on Makefile.linux results)
-Useful functions like OHrangeRetrieveError are missing.
-At least some functions, if not all, fail when called without all arguments given; i.e. there are no default values taken in.
-Error codes as numbers are ugly.
-Consider renaming the Add-In service to "QuantLib" ? This might be more tidy when looking for a function in the Calc drop down menu.
-Debug the Makefile dependencies; when launching the Makefile with '-j' things go wrong: ...'at times'... theres no ./com/* generation, or too late and as a result the f's are not shown. No complains about missing includes though....
-Trim the idl compilation; lots of stuff there not used.
