@JohnSmizz you will have to switch your configuration on the python side to build using MSVC and not gcc. The easiest way to do it might be to execute your python setup.py build inside of the VisualStudio 2013 Command Line which will pre-configure things properly for MSVC to be used by disutils and not gcc.

Thanks! I ran the command

python setup.py build --compiler=msvc

out of the 2013 MS VC Express 64Bit prompt and annoyingly get the following error, suggesting that I need to recompile something, just not sure what?

I have, since my last post, created numerous ENV vars all referencing MS VS 12 (SET VC90COMNTOOLS = ...), so thought I must be getting close to having all necessary applications on board by now.
Moreover, I checked how I compiled my QuantLib and its definitely compiled as 64 bit as the TestingQuantLib project runs smoothly on 64bit release.

I am a little bit stumped now.... Any idea what may be causing this?

Welcome to the fun of building extension on Windows ;-)

Looking at it, I wonder if it is not an issue with the extra_linker_args in the setup.py. I see /machine:I386 in the call to the linker which does not sound correct. Can you try removing it from https://github.com/enthought/pyql/blob/master/setup.py#L97 ?

Good spot! I removed it and the build ran for a bit longer, just ended with a new error...

@JohnSmizz I guess you haven't patched QuantLib as needed.
See for the details https://github.com/enthought/pyql/blob/master/docs/source/getting_started.rst#installation-from-source-on-windows

from pyql.

dpinte avatar dpinte commented on May 13, 2024

@JohnSmizz any update on your build? If you're stuck I might be able to share some pre-built .dll and .lib.

from pyql.

ohmeninea avatar ohmeninea commented on May 13, 2024

I'm having a similar problem when trying to follow the steps as linked.
First, I could not find a "settings.py" in /ql/, I think it should be "settings.hpp."
When I change the line in "settings.hpp" as described, I get many warnings during build similar to:

1>.\ql/settings.hpp(37) : warning C4275: non dll-interface class 'boost::noncopyable_::noncopyable' used as base for dll-interface class 'QuantLib::Singleton<T>'
1>        with
1>        [
1>            T=QuantLib::Settings
1>        ]
1>        C:\dev\boost_1_57_0\boost/core/noncopyable.hpp(24) : see declaration of 'boost::noncopyable_::noncopyable'
1>.\ql/settings.hpp(122) : warning C4251: 'QuantLib::Settings::evaluationDate_' : class 'QuantLib::Settings::DateProxy' needs to have dll-interface to be used by clients of class 'QuantLib::Settings'

Not sure if it matters, since it still does create a bunch of .obj files in my path:

C:\dev\QuantLib-1.5\build\vc90\x64\Release

But when I try to run the "generate_symbols.py" script in pyql, I get the following error:

WindowsError: [Error 2] The system cannot find the file specified

If I change the subprocess call from:

nm_result = subprocess.check_output(command, startupinfo=startupinfo)

to:

nm_result = subprocess.check_output(command, startupinfo=startupinfo, shell=True)

It can find the file, but I get the error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\dev\pyql\scripts\generate_symbols.py", line 91, in <module>
    main()
  File "C:\dev\pyql\scripts\generate_symbols.py", line 87, in main

subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '['nm', '--extern-only', '--defined-only', 'C:\\dev\\QuantLib-1.5\\build\\vc90\\x
64\\Release\\abcd.obj']' returned non-zero exit status 1

This seems reasonable to me because why would the 'nm' command work on the .obj file?

But then again, I am a complete newb to this whole process--I don't know what a ".def" file is or why I need it...

Also, the build doesn't complete successfully in VS2008 when I do this step:

Change "General" -> "Configuration type" to "Dynamic Library (DLL)".

If I leave it as static, it can build in VS2008 properly, but then it still fails when trying to build the pyql setup.
The last few lines of my python setup.py build call (the same both inside and outside of VS2008 command line) are below:

I am on windows 64-bit using python 2.7.9 64-bit, boost 1.57 64-bit, quantlib 1.5, and visual studio 2008.

Would love to be able to play with pyql. Any thoughts/help appreciated!

@JohnSmizz let's do things in order.

First, you need a quantlib dll, you have patched the source, and compiled all the obj files, you should also be able to get a dll as output. Could you give me the error you have when trying to build the dll? The first build of the dll will produce nothing because the def file has not been generated yet.

Second, generating the def file should work fine but you will need nm.exe (in the Enthought Canopy world, you just need to install the mingw package). We should be able to do the same using dumpbin to avoid the dependency on mingw but ... Do you have nm.exe on you rmachine?

Third, once you have the .def generated, you will be able to generate the proper dll with all the needed symbols (and the associated .lib which is going to be used by the python build process).

If you've on Python 2.7, I can give you direct access to a QuantLib dll, lib and def file through dropbox.

from pyql.

ohmeninea avatar ohmeninea commented on May 13, 2024

If you do have them available, yes, please provide the x64 .dll, and .lib. (Would I even need the .def if am not building in VS2008 since I would have the .dll and .lib?)

I was missing the mingw64 package. After obtaining this I restarted the process...Below are my exact steps:

_0. Install VS2008 w/ x64 compilers
_1. Install boost_1_57_0-msvc-9.0-64.exe
_2. Unzip QuantLib-1.5.zip
_3. Open QuantLib_vc9.sln in VS2008
_4. Tools -> Options -> Platform x64 -> Include Files -> Add boost 1.57 headers directory (C:\dev\boost_1_57_0)
_5. Tools -> Options -> Platform x64 -> Library Files -> Add boost 1.57 lib directory (C:\dev\boost_1_57_0\lib64-msvc-9.0)
_6. Build -> Configuration Manager -> Release & x64
_7. View -> Solution Explorer -> Solution -> QuantLib -> settings.hpp -> Change Line 37 to:

class __declspec(dllexport) Settings : public Singleton<Settings> {

_8. Right-Click QuantLib -> Properties -> Configuration Properties -> General -> Configuration Type -> Dynamic Library.dll -> Apply -> OK
_9. Right-Click QuantLib -> Build. Get many warnings, snippet below:

Where did I go wrong?

dpinte avatar dpinte commented on May 13, 2024

In step _15, you don't need a static .lib. When MSVC builds a dll, it also builds a .lib file which just contains the symbols exposed by the dll. That is the .lib file you must use.

Can you send me mail to dpinte at enthought.com so that I can share the needed files with you?

ohmeninea avatar ohmeninea commented on May 13, 2024

That was my mistake! I was able to build and install after copying "quantlib.lib" from 'C:\dev\QuantLib-1.5\build\vc90\x64\Release' to 'C:\dev\QuantLib-1.5\lib' and using that instead of the 'QuantLib-vc90-x64-mt.lib' in the setup.py.
Thank you! 😃 👍

Great! Closing the ticket.

JohnSmizz avatar JohnSmizz commented on May 13, 2024

Hey!
So I am still struggling, but have managed to build and install quantlib via VC10-- it imports successfully via

import quantlib

but none of the underlyings work, eg:

from quantlib.quotes import SimpleQuote
Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "<ipython-input-5-1907abb16c3e>", line 1, in <module>
    from quantlib.quotes import SimpleQuote

ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.

The steps I had to take in order to get here
A/ Install a functioning x64 compiler
1/ Install MS VS C++ Express 10
2/ Install SDK 7.1
3/ Install MS VC C++ SP1
4/ Install SP1 Compiler patch KB2519277
B/ ohmeninea's steps 1-14, but

  1. Install boost_1_57_0-msvc-10.0-64.exe
  2. Unzip QuantLib-1.5.zip
    1. Open QuantLib_vc10.sln in VS2010
  3. Change your project configuration + Toolset (See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1865069/how-to-compile-a-64-bit-application-using-visual-c-2010-express)
    5 Tools -> Options -> Platform x64 -> Include Files -> Add boost 1.57 headers directory (C:\dev\boost_1_57_0)
    1. Tools -> Options -> Platform x64 -> Library Files -> Add boost 1.57 lib directory (C:\dev\boost_1_57_0\lib64-msvc-9.0)
    2. Build -> Configuration Manager -> Release & x64
    3. View -> Solution Explorer -> Solution -> QuantLib -> settings.hpp -> Change Line 37
  4. Right-Click QuantLib -> Properties -> Configuration Properties -> General -> Configuration Type -> Dynamic Library.dll -> Apply -> OK
    1. Right-Click QuantLib -> Build
  5. In ...\pyql\scripts\generate_symbols.py, change first lines of main() function
    ADD MN.EXE directory to Window's EV PATH variable prior to executing generate_symbols.py
  6. VS2010 -> Right-Click QuantLib -> Properties -> Configuration Properties -> Linker -> Input -> Module Definition File -> C:\QuantLib-1.5\symbols_x64_vc100.def -> Apply -> OK and Build.
  7. Copy QuantLib-vc100-x64-mt.dll from C:\QuantLib-1.5\build\vc100\x64\Release to C:\Anaconda3, and make sure that C:\Anaconda3 is in WINDOWS PATH environment variable (ie not pythonpath)
  8. In setup.py, I changed to
QL_LIBRARY = 'QuantLib-vc100-x64-mt'
INCLUDE_DIRS = [INCLUDE_DIRS = [
        r'C:\QuantLib-1.5',  # QuantLib headers 
        r'C:\local\boost_1_57_0', # Boost headers
        '.',
        SUPPORT_CODE_INCLUDE
    ]
    LIBRARY_DIRS = [
        r"C:\QuantLib-1.5\build\vc100\x64\Release", # for the dll lib
        r"C:\QuantLib-1.5\lib",
        '.',
        r'.\dll',

and added under function get_extra_link_args() the args /machine:x64'
15 Started MS SDK 7.1 Command Prompt and ran

python setup.py build --compiler=msvc
python setup.py install

I can now "import quantlib" but anything beyond that command shows the error given above, where the necessary dll cannot be found. The dll in step 13 is not named like in the getting_started.py file because I am using VS2010 -- have I named it incorrectly somehow? Or am I putting it into the wrong folder?

from pyql.

ohmeninea avatar ohmeninea commented on May 13, 2024

I think I had a similar issue when I was trying to get it working--I fixed it by adding "C:\dev" to my PATH environment variable and sticking the "QuantLib.dll" file from "C:\dev\QuantLib-1.5\build\vc90\x64\Release" into it.

I suppose you could also just add "C:\QuantLib-1.5\build\vc100\x64\Release" to your PATH?

Although maybe I am remembering the error/solution incorrectly...

from pyql.

dpinte avatar dpinte commented on May 13, 2024

@JohnSmizz the dll name you should use is the dll name that VS produced. I think you have the correct one. The dll must be on the PATH so that the quantlib package can load it when needed. If it still does not work, I would suggest inspecting the generated pyd files with DependencyWalker to see what it depends on.

from pyql.

JohnSmizz avatar JohnSmizz commented on May 13, 2024

Out of desperation I have added about 20 different locations to my path variable and also copied the DLL into lots of different places it shouldnt be. That didn't work.

But Dependency Walker indicates that modules like QUOTES.PYD look for a module called QUANTLIB.DLL. However, as this thing was compiled with VS2010 I think there was never a DLL created that was called QUANTLIB.DLL. , instead only QUANTLIB-VC100-X64-MT.DLL.

To experiment, I renamed the file that VS produced, QUANTLIB-VC100-X64-MT.DLL to simply "QUANTLIB.DLL" in one of the twenty locations I've copy-pasted it into.
After renaming the DLL to just Quantlib.dll the module runs finein Python (i tested just SimpleQuote).

I really hope the time I save using pyQL pythonic wrappers rather than SWIG is more than offset by the time I took to install the module... :)

So to conclude, the pyd file looks for quantlib.dll instead of the longer-named dll. This may be a bug when the installation code was written?

Thanks,

from pyql.

dpinte avatar dpinte commented on May 13, 2024

@JohnSmizz First, it's great to see you got it working now. Second, the dependency from quotes.pyd to QuantLib.dll was more than likely there because of a previous build. Is that possible? Or did you do a git clean -xfd or anything else before doing the last build. You had renamed the QL_LIBRARY variable in setup.py and thus could not have a QuantLib.dll referenced from the pyd's.
Last, if you want a cleaner way to do the installer, I would suggest you use python setup.py bdist_egg in place of python setup.py install (which does not uninstall previous code. etc..). The you can easily install and unistall the egg.

@JohnSmizz last comment: it would be great to have your feedback on PyQL vs the SWIG wrappers. Depending on what you plan to do, I guess PyQL will either be great or will require some work to expose things that are not there yet.

Hello.. I followed the instructions here and helped me get the pyql package install. I realized the following and I am not sure if this is normal:
1- The package is included in the *egg file and not standalone
2- When "import quantlib as ql" is initiated I don't see the class item after ".", yet when I call a class from within quantlib, like "import quantlib.cashflow as qlcf", then qlcf will expose the class items after ".".
3- all init files are empty
Is this is the way it should behave, or did I install it wrongly.
Thank you in advance for taking the time answering my question.

Thanks to @dpinte, @JohnSmizz and especially @ohmeninea seems I have managed to compile and install PyQL on winpython 3.5 using QuantLib 1.7.1 x64 win7 with Visual Studio Community 2015.

Hi @dpinte,

I have been struggling with similar issues to JohnSmizz when building. I removed machine:I386 as suggested above and am running from the Visual C++ 32-bit Command Prompt, but I receive a new error. (I patched the settings.hpp file, at the start.)

Thanks in advance for any help that you can provide.
