Member Function Documentation

DateProxy& evaluationDate ()

the date at which pricing is to be performed.

Client code can inspect the evaluation date, as in:

            Date d = Settings::instance().evaluationDate();

 where today's date is returned if the evaluation date is set to the null date (its default value;) can set it to a new value, as in: 

            Settings::instance().evaluationDate() = d;

 and can register with it, as in: 

            registerWith(Settings::instance().evaluationDate());

 to be notified when it is set to a new value. 

Warning

a notification is not sent when the evaluation date changes for natural causes---i.e., a date was not explicitly set (which results in today's date being used for pricing) and the current date changes as the clock strikes midnight.
