Can't build pyql on Mac about pyql HOT 4 CLOSED

@linkedrank Do you have QuantLib installed in /usr/local/? The installation instructions that you quote refer to /opt/local/ and the linker error suggests that PyQL can't find the QuantLib library.

Hi Joris - thanks for the response. I was able to successfully build the library after I fixed the path issue by modifying setup.py with the proper include and library paths. I was also able to run the examples in place in the original directory but when I copy or link the quantlib directory to my project directory, I get import errors. Any idea? I'm guessing I'm doing something stupid. (Obviously it's finding the directory itself and getting to quantlib.instruments.api but having trouble importing some of the classes)

import american_option

File "/Users/marywilliamson1/Documents/projects/pnlbooker/server/app/american_option.py", line 10, in
from quantlib.instruments.api import AmericanExercise, VanillaOption, Put
File "/Users/marywilliamson1/Documents/projects/pnlbooker/server/app/quantlib/instruments/api.py", line 1, in
from .bonds import FixedRateBond, ZeroCouponBond
ImportError: cannot import name FixedRateBond

from pyql.

when I copy or link the quantlib directory to my project directory, I get import errors. Any idea?

There should be no need to move the quantlib folder, you can just run make install (after doing make build). This will install PyQL in your site-packages folder, and after that, importing from quantlib should work fine.

Thanks a lot - that worked.
