Hi, it seems that your installed visual studio version doesn't meet the minimum requirements for compiling ORE. What version do you use?
On my side, I can confirm that
C:\dev\cmake\bin\cmake.exe -G "Visual Studio 16 2019" -A x64 -DBOOST_INCLUDEDIR=%BOOST% -DBOOST_LIBRARYDIR=%BOOST_LIB64% -DQL_ENABLE_SESSIONS=ON -B build
C:\dev\cmake\bin\cmake.exe --build build -v --config Release
compiles without errors, BOOST being version 1_70_0.

[shreyashnadage]

I am using Visual Studio version 17 2022. and boost version is 1_82_0.
I was able to resolve most of the errors by adding #include to the opencleenvironment.cpp

[rkapl123]

OK, then I think it's probably the old problem with getting the correct ORE vs. Quantlib version.
If I correctly assume that you want to build the latest ORE version (1.8.10), then the safest way ist NOT to pull the current master (I did that initially and got a lot of errors too) but rather to switch to the tag 1.8.10:

and then download the zip with the code:

next you go to the Quantlib version that this ORE Version was built with:

and download the zip with the code here as well:

The last step is to integrate the Quantlib Folder into the ORE source tree:

... by putting the contents of the downloaded Quantlib into the Quantlib folder...
This should build perfectly.

-regards,
Roland

Thanks for suggesting this. Let me try this out. I was following the new video tutorial by Alexis David.

[rkapl123]

I see, unfortunately Alexis doesn't mention that once the master moves away from the last release (tag), then there is no guarantee that the described approach using git cloning from master works anymore. Maybe the guys could add something to describe how to correctly get the ORE release tag and also the matching Quantlib subproject using git. Using TortoiseGit, this is not trivial.

Concerning your other question on the toolset version, Alexis mentioned in his other video how to find that: https://youtu.be/NSNvOwY4mIY?list=PLb2K3onkfSic2KRNq4puugI0ZLmhmJyh7&t=296

[shreyashnadage]

Thanks Roland for sharing this.

[rkapl123]

I've also added a way to get the versions from git more precisely:

git clone https://github.com/opensourcerisk/engine.git oredir
cd oredir
git checkout tags/v1.8.10.0
git submodule init
git submodule update
cd QuantLib
git checkout c235cdabbb34beaae601700092b9abfefdd7fc6a

The commit on the last line for the QuantLib submodule can always be found on the git code page as described above (just take the last part of the link).

Hi! When trying to build runCmakeVS, I get the errors that I attached below. I took the assembly instructions on YouTube. VisualStudio version 2022, Boot - 1.82.0 14.3. What could be the problem?

It seems that VS can not find the boost library.

Have you installed boost and set the enviormental variables BOOST and BOOST_LIB64 pointing to the include and lib dir?

Having a recent version of Anaconda installed could cause also some troubles with the cmake configure step. Anaconda comes now with a boost library but there are not all binaries included. Often CMAKE tries to use the anaconda boost instead of the dedicated boost version. You can fix that by adding the flag -DBoost_NO_SYSTEM_PATHS=ON to the cmake command in runCmakeVS script:

cmake -G "Visual Studio 17 2022" -A x64 -DBOOST_INCLUDEDIR=%BOOST% -DBOOST_LIBRARYDIR=%BOOST_LIB64% -DQL_ENABLE_SESSIONS=ON -DBoost_NO_SYSTEM_PATHS=ON -B build

That should prevent cmake to look for boost in any other directories beside the hint variables -DBOOST_INCLUDEDIR and -DBOOST_LIBRARYDIR.

If you use the prebuilt boost binaries, I would recommend you to use boost 1.72 v142. Newer prebuilt version can cause some problems under windows (#160).

[Timur-mur]

Everything is gathered! I had to use an earlier version of Anaconda. Thanks!!!
