Black Variance Surface

xnb
I wonder why the settlementDate must be smaller than the vector of Dates in
BlackVarianceSurface.
*QL_REQUIRE(dates[0]>=referenceDate, "cannot have dates[0] <=
referenceDate");*
What model can be used to interpolate a volatility value ?


test-suite\barrieroption.cpp
ql\termstructures\volatility\equityfx\blackvariancesurface.cpp

regards,
XNB

Hi,
    if it's still of any interest (my bad, I lost track of the post)
the requirement is because it makes no sense to quote a volatility for
an option maturity in the past.
