Downloads QuantLib-1.24.tar.gz QuantLib-1.24.zip Changes for QuantLib 1.24: QuantLib 1.24 includes 25 pull requests from several contributors. The most notable changes are included below. A detailed list of changes is available in ChangeLog.txt and at https://github.com/lballabio/QuantLib/milestone/20?closed=1. Portability Overhauled the CMake build system (thanks to @pkovacs). Among other things, it now allows to specify the available configuration options from the cmake invocation and adds the required Boost libraries accordingly. Instruments Avoid callable-bond mispricing when a call date is close but not equal to a coupon date (thanks to @ralfkonrad for the fix and to @aichao for the analysis). See https://github.com/lballabio/QuantLib/issues/930 for details. A new RiskyBondEngine is available for bonds (thanks to @w31ha0). It prices bonds based on a risk-free discount cure and a default-probability curve used to assess the probability of each coupon payment. It makes accessible to all bonds the calculations previously available in the experimental RiskyBond class. Cashflows The choice between par and indexed coupons was moved to IborCouponPricer (thanks to @pcaspers). This also made it possible to override the choice locally when building a VanillaSwap or a SwapRateHelper, so that coupons with both behaviors can now be used at the same time. Term structures Cross-currency basis swap rate helpers now support both constant-notional and marked-to-market swaps (thanks to @marcin-rybacki). Date/time Added Chilean calendar (thanks to @anubhav-pandey1). Added new ThirdWednesdayInclusive date-generation rule that also adjusts start and end dates (thanks to @w31ha0). Patterns Overhauled Singleton implementation (thanks to @pcaspers). Singletons are now initialized in a thread-safe way when sessions are enabled, global singletons (that is, independent of sessions) were made available, and static initialization was made safer. Test suite Sped up some of the longer-running tests (thanks to @mshojatalab). Deprecated features Deprecated default constructor for the U.S. calendar; the desired market should now be passed explicitly. Deprecated the nominalTermStructure method and the corresponding data member in inflation term structures. Any object needing the nominal term structure should have it passed explicitly. Deprecated the termStructure_ data member in BlackCalibrationHelper. It you're inheriting from BlackCalibrationHelper and need it, declare it in your derived class. Deprecated the createAtParCoupons, createIndexedCoupons and usingAtParCoupons methods of IborCoupon, now moved to a new IborCoupon::Settings singleton (thanks to @pkovacs). Deprecated the conversionType and baseCurrency static data members of Money, now moved to a new Money::Settings singleton (thanks to @pkovacs). Removed features deprecated in version 1.19: the BMAIndex constructor taking a calendar, the AmericanCondition and ShoutCondition constructors taking an option type and strike, the CurveDependentStepCondition class and the StandardCurveDependentStepCondition typedef, the BlackCalibrationHelper constructor taking a yield term structure, the various inflation term structure constructors taking a yield term structure, the various yield term constructors taking a vector of jumps but not specifying a reference date.
