Debugging add-in for Visual Studio to display QuantLib classes better in the watch windows.
Based on instructions found on http://www.altdev.co/2011/06/22/extending-the-watch-window-in-visual-studio-via-eeaddin/
You'll have to fix the references to QuantLib and Boost. After compilation, copy the .dll to your
%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\ directory and add this line to autoexp.dat:
QuantLib::Date=$ADDIN(QuantLibEE.dll,AddIn_quantlibdate)
VS2012 dropped the use of autoexp.dat;
however, you can still use existing add-ins through the new mechanism - an XML natvis file.
Create a file qdate.natvis in %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\Packages\Debugger\Visualizers directory
like this :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<AutoVisualizer xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/vstudio/debugger/natvis/2010">
<Type Name="QuantLib::Date">
<DisplayString LegacyAddin="%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE\QuantLibEE.dll"
Export="AddIn_quantlibdate">
</DisplayString>
</Type>
</AutoVisualizer>
