Re: [Quantlib-dev] Building the Java swig bindings to quantlib

[Toli K. <to...@ma...>]

All,

Thanks to the great help of Ari on this list, i've been able to get
the Java bindings to compile.
For otherws with similar questions in the future, here's the short
answer on what to run in the QuantLib-SWIG-xxx/Java library after
doing 'configure/make -C Java' in top-level:
---
g++ -c quantlib_wrap.cpp -I<platform specific JVM includes>
g++ -shared quantlib_wrap.o -Wl,--add-stdcall-alias -o quantlib_wrap.so
-lquantlib -L<path to quantlib lib>

That should build the wrapper shared lib. Then in you java program you
nead to load that lib and have it and the quantlib lib on the LD_LIBRARY_PATH
---
For the long version, see the attached writeup from our wiki.

Again, huge thanks for the help on getting this to work. And if
someone knows who I can to talk to  incorporate the changes into the
distribution so as to avoid manual work in the future, please let me
know.
