Detailed Description

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();
Settings::instance().evaluationDate() = d;
registerWith(Settings::instance().evaluationDate());
- 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.
bool& includeReferenceDateCashFlows | ( | ) |
This flag specifies whether or not cashflows occurring on the NPV date should, by default, enter the NPV. It can be overridden locally when calling the NPV-related methods.
boost::optional<bool>& includeTodaysCashFlows | ( | ) |
If set, this flag specifies whether or not cashflows occurring on today's date should enter the NPV. When the NPV date (i.e., the date at which the cash flows are discounted) equals today's date, this flag overrides the behavior chosen for the NPV date.
