/*! \page history Version History
! <strong>Release 0.3.13 - August 2006</strong>
!
! %QuantLibAddin 0.3.13 is a major release comprising a several fold increase
! in the size and complexity of the application. The project has also been
! restructured as summarized below.
!
! QUANTLIBXL
!
! The name QuantLibXL was originally applied to an Excel addin which supplemented
! QuantLib releases 0.3.3 through 0.3.8. That project was discontinued.
!
! All %QuantLibAddin releases have included an Excel addin. Beginning with
! %QuantLibAddin version 0.3.13, the QuantLibXL name has been resurrected and
! given to the %QuantLibAddin build for the Excel platform. The new QuantLibXL
! project reflects the fact that the majority of interest in %QuantLibAddin
! originates from end business users on the Excel platform. The new QuantLibXL
! project has a separate web page
! (<a href="http://www.quantlibxl.org">http://www.quantlibxl.org</a>)
! and provides a Windows installer for the compiled package.
!
! For a breakdown of the differences between the old and new QuantLibXL projects,
! please see the following item in the %QuantLibAddin FAQ: \ref faq_excel
!
! GENSRC
!
! gensrc (<a href="http://www.gensrc.org">http://www.gensrc.org</a>) is a Python
! application which takes XML descriptions of functions defined in a library and
! generates source code for addins on supported platforms including Microsoft
! Excel and OpenOffice.org Calc. gensrc is used to autogenerate source code for
! %QuantLibAddin and ObjectHandler.
!
! gensrc was previously called srcgen, and resided in a subdirectory of
! %QuantLibAddin versions prior to 0.3.13. gensrc has been separated from
! %QuantLibAddin 0.3.13 into a standalone project. gensrc has adopted the
! %version numbering scheme from ObjectHandler, hence %QuantLibAddin 0.3.13
! %relies on gensrc version 0.1.4. gensrc was renamed from srcgen because of a
! %conflict with another SourceForge project.
