JQuantlib on Google App Engine

Question

I have been wondering: Has anyone successfully deployed a Google App Engine which uses JQuantlib? JQuantLib is a free, open-source, comprehensive framework for quantitative finance, written in 100% Java.

Does anyone know whether this is possible at all? I understand that libraries need to be whitelisted by google to run on app engine. However I am wondering whether it is possible to build the library from source and send it along with the application - given of course that the dependencies are fulfilled.

Any input is appreciated.

Thanks, Christoph

Answer 1

You can upload any library you want to App Engine. It needs to use white-listed java APIs.

From the quick squiz I did on JQuantlib, I can't see any reason why it won't work. So, go for it.
