Re: [Quantlib-dev] Visual Studio 2015 (vc14) solution and projects files for QuantlibXL

Thanks, Eric.

I remember I saw these instructions about upgrade_vc.py on the mailing list
before.

I followed your instructions. The gensrc and Docs projects didn't
automatically upgrade, but I edited the .vcxproj files in a text editor in
accordance with the changes in the other projects that did indeed ugprade.

I also amended the auto_link.hpp files to detect the latest compiler
version.

I pushed the changes to
https://github.com/igitur/quantlib/tree/VisualStudio2015-files-for-QuantLibXL

thanks
