Re: [Quantlib-users] QuantLibXL Addin

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

Hi Francois,

Thank you, that's very useful information.  It's always hard to know how 
much interest there is in the project.

We are talking now about the possibility of resurrecting QuantLibXL, 
maybe under the ORE umbrella.  The simplest case would be to update 
QuantLibXL to the latest version of QuantLib.  Beyond that we could look 
at extending QuantLibXL, maybe even to include ORE functions.

The reposit build, I got it to the point of generating 80-90% of the 
functions in QuantLibXL.  I was never too sure about that approach. 
Instead of using gensrc, and maintaining XML files, we would have to use 
a fork of SWIG, and maintain SWIG interface files.

Regards,
Eric
