Re: [Quantlib-dev] QuantLib Excel project

[ALIX L. <al...@la...>]

Hi Eric,

Thanks again for your help. I managed to generate the 64 bit version of the
addin. It took approximately ~2/3 hours. But I still don't know why and how
it worked.

Looking at the differences between your repo and my local files, I can only
notice that a new XML tag has been added in QuantLibXLStatic_vc12.vcxproj
following the selection of "Machine X64" in the field named "Target
Machine" (Properties > Linker > Advanced > "Target Machine"). I am not sure
this is the right reason ; for me it shoud be the default value when
compiling in x64 mode - to be confirmed.

I will share my investigations if I find out something interesting.

Thanks,
Alix
