Detailed Description

Credit default swap.

Note:

This instrument currently assumes that the issuer did not default until today's date.

Warning

if QL_TODAYS_PAYMENTS was defined (in userconfig.hpp or when calling ./configure; it is undefined by default) payments occurring at the settlement date of the swap are included in the NPV, and therefore affect the fair-spread calculation. This might not be what you want.

Examples:

CDS.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

void setupArguments (PricingEngine::arguments *) const [virtual]

When a derived argument structure is defined for an instrument, this method should be overridden to fill it. This is mandatory in case a pricing engine is used.

Reimplemented from Instrument.

void fetchResults (const PricingEngine::results * r) const [virtual]

When a derived result structure is defined for an instrument, this method should be overridden to read from it. This is mandatory in case a pricing engine is used.

Reimplemented from Instrument.

void setupExpired () const [protected, virtual]

This method must leave the instrument in a consistent state when the expiration condition is met.

Reimplemented from Instrument.
