Quantlib-SWIG 1.12.x for Python error, missing Quantlib/quantlib_wrap.cpp in windows

问题

I downloaded both Quantlib-SWIG 1.12.x and Quantlib 1.12.x from github. Quantlib is compiled without and problems. The examples ran normally. However, when run python setup.py build, there is an error indicating missing quantlib_wrap.cpp. Where to download the proper quantlib_wrap.cpp for this version or this error is related to something else? Here is the messages I got from this build.

回答1:

quantlib_wrap.cpp is generated by SWIG using the sources in the repository. If you have SWIG installed, you can generate it (see https://www.quantlib.org/install/windows-python.shtml); but if you don't have plans to modify the sources, I suggest that you either:

instead of cloning the repo from GitHub, download an official release (see https://www.quantlib.org/download.shtml); released sources include quantlib_wrap.cpp;
or better yet, as suggested in the install page linked above, try running
```
pip install QuantLib-Python
```
to see if a precompiled Python module is available from PyPI. If that succeeds, you'll be set without having to compile the thing yourself.
