Re: [Quantlib-dev] Fwd: Re: QuantLib-1.8 | vc14 | AdaptiveRungeKutta testsuite error

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

Peter, Ivan,
    I could reproduce the errors on a virtual machine running VC14.  I'll
try to find some time to work on this, too.

Also, I'll share a life lesson I learned last week.  If you ever reproduce
an error like the above, and then the compiler tells you that an update is
available, for the love of all that's holy DON'T update.  If you do so, the
error will disappear and your virtual machine will spend the best part of a
Friday restoring the previous version of the compiler while you call
yourself all sorts of names.  Just saying.

Later,
    Luigi
