Detailed Description

Base class for event.

This class acts as a base class for the actual event implementations.


Member Function Documentation

bool hasOccurred ( const Date d,
bool  includeToday = false 
) const

returns true if an event has already occurred before a date

If QL_TODAYS_PAYMENT is true, then a payment event has not occurred if the input date is the same as the event date, and so includeToday should be defaulted to true.

This should be the only place in the code that is affected directly by QL_TODAYS_PAYMENT
