Yes, we should. I just committed the change.

When trying to build the doc rpm package, I encountered a problem on the docs-ps stage. After some investigation, I learned that it is due to the secure mode of dvips that Redhat configured. In this mode, if no option is given, the output of dvips will go to a printer and it is not allowed. Please read the following discussion for details: http://www.mail-archive.com/te...@in.../msg01782.html https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=717663&group_id=23164&atid=377580 One solution to avoid this problem is to invoke dvips with "-o file.ps". This redirect the output to the stdin, and we can redirect it to the postscript file. For example in the Docs/latex directory, /usr/bin/dvips -o refman.ps refman. This is causing the problem of building docs on RH8.0, and I don't know about RH9. I will test later. Should we use this in our make files? If so, can anyone commit this change? Thanks. Liguo (Leo) |

Hi all, the attached document tries to explain the changes I made to the Instrument class. Please do read it if you're working on new instruments. Bye, Luigi |

This may lead to unsuccesful calibrations in some particular situations, like the calibration of a 1-dim HullWhite model with the alpha being constant. A better value is 0.05. Appearently, there are no cases of wrong calibrations with the "official" HullWhite model (but... who knows?) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=312740&aid=811713&group_id=12740 |

Of course I discontinued it. I don't make the Windows installer---all it
takes on my box is 'make dist-check'. Why did YOU discontinued it? :)
Later,

Hi all, as QuantLib is about to turn three, I had a look at how the baby grew. The results are in the attached pdf---and the most notable feature is, we don't release half as often as I'd like :) Bye, Luigi P.S. Nando, if you want to put the thing on the site, I can convert it to some other format |

Typing 'make examples' from the root directory should work. Alternatively 'make' from the Examples directory will work too. In the first case the examples will be built linking to the installed QuantLib library. In the second case the examples will be built linking to the relative path ../lib/ QuantLib library Please let me know if you have further requirement, or if the makefile is missing from other files/packages of the QuantLib 0.3.3 distribution thank you ciao -- Nando ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=362740&aid=804608&group_id=12740 |

Andre', any insight? >I am just quite curious about why it didn't happen to any compiler other >than Borland. I'm just as puzzled. >I am not knowledgable enough to offer any remedy here. Anyone up for a patch? I'd try something like: inline Rate TermStructure::zeroCoupon(Time t, int f, bool extrapolate) const { if (t == 0.0) return forwardImpl(0.0); DiscountFactor df = discountImpl(t, extrapolate); if (f > 0 && t <= (1.0/f)) return Rate((1.0/df-1.0)/t); else return Rate((QL_POW(1.0/df,1.0/(t*f))-1.0)*f); } Later, Luigi |

Hi, Nando, I noticed the discussion about the 0/0 bug in the TermStructure::zeroCoupon() on the forum at www.Wilmott.com. So, I checked the source code and find that the following code is problematic. inline Rate TermStructure::zeroCoupon(Time t, int f, bool extrapolate) const { DiscountFactor df = discountImpl(t, extrapolate); if (f > 0 && t <= (1.0/(double)f)) return Rate((1.0/df-1.0)/t); if (t == 0.0) t = 1.0; return Rate((QL_POW(1.0/df,1.0/(t*f))-1.0)*f); } The "if (t == 0.0) " will never be processed as as t <= 1.0/(double)f is always true when f > 0 and t=0.0. Thus, 0/0 or x/0 will happen as long as f > 0 and t = 0.0. I am just quite curious about why it didn't happen to any compiler other than Borland. I am not knowledgable enough to offer any remedy here. Anyone up for a patch? Later. Liguo |

Hi, Nando, All the RPMs are OK, and ready for release. The src RPM is missing. Obviously, I forget to put it to http://nlog.phy.vanderbilt.edu/SoftwareProjects/QuantLib/ Sorry for the mess up. Can you upload it to sourceforge also? I will talk to CppUnit team about the cppunit RPMS. Have a good vacation.

Dirk: >I am confused as to what you want to do. I am confused too :) Jokes aside, Debian should have no problems, especially because we're not providing files but only links. I just would like to be sure I'm providing the right links (http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/q/quantlib) For other RPMs and Unix files we're providing the files, and I would like to be sure the files I've uploaded are not corrupted (as it happened in the past) thank you ciao -- Nando |

I am confused as to what you want to do. 0.3.3 packages (ql, ql-python,
ql-ruby and two doc packages with pdf and html) have been updated and are
available for some ten or so architectures from hundreds of mirrors?
Do you want all of those on the top-level page?
Do you want the links to the doc package(s):
$MACHINE/debian/pool/main/q/quantlib-refman/ works for the pdf docs, the
html variant is a 'new' package and is not yet there (probably by next
weekend)
Other than that, it would probably help to just show a simple
$ apt-get update; apt-get install quantlib-examples \
quantlib-refman libquantlib0-dev
which will also install the library itself, given proper apt-get source file
settings.
Let me know how I can help, Dirk

Hi all the 0.3.3 release is on-line at the not-public page http://quantlib.org/nextrelease.html I would ask you all to check links, files, and descriptions. Especially please check that all downloaded files are not corrupted. I will check all Win32 links/files, and I assume :) that Luigi will check all Unix links/files except RPMs (Linguo?) and Debian (Dirk?) Should I make cpp-unit RPMs available on QuantLib? I don't think so... Linguo, why don't you get in touch with the cpp-unit team and offer them the RPMs? I can correct/fix/upload anything tomorrow, then on Wednesday the 0.3.3 will be officially released. Please note that on Wednesday I will be on vacation, with low-band and limited time available for QuantLib :) Feel free to browse the quantlib.org site for general fixes/suggestions/updates thank you everybody for the work on 0.3.3 ------------ ciao -- Nando |
