Re: [Quantlib-users] QuantLib Calc addin compilation

[Eric E. <eri...@re...>]

Hello,

The last version of QuantLibAddin that supported the Calc addin was 
1.0.1, released in 2010.  You could try downloading that and following 
the documentation which came with it but I wouldn't hold out much hope 
because LibreOffice has probably moved on since then.

At the link you provided it looks like somebody managed to get it 
working more recently but I don't know anything about that.  Maybe 
somebody else will chime in with more info.  Sorry that I can't be more 
helpful.

Regards,
Eric
