Adding Swig Capabilities for the Fixed Rate Bond Forward Class

[John Orford]

Hey Guys,

Can someone give me pointers on adding functionality for a completely new class?

I couldn't see any forward class available - I suspect this might be beyond me, but I'm willing to have a go.

Thanks,

John

In short (too short, probably, but of course you can follow up if you
get stuck):

- it's an instrument, so instead of just showing SWIG its declaration
you'll have to jump through a couple of hoops to export it as a
shared_ptr but still masquerade it as the instrument class. See, for
instance, how FixedRateBond is exported in SWIG/bonds.i (also mind the
%{ ... %} block at the beginning of the file where a few typedefs are
declared.

- its constructor takes a pointer to FixedRateBond, which is not
available directly (it's masqueraded as above). You'll have to declare
the parameter as a FixedRateBondPtr, and then cast it inside the
exported constructor. See, for instance, how BondHelper does it in
SWIG/ratehelpers.i.

Later,
    Luigi
