PV of dividend schedule for cash/discrete dividends

aimz
I am looking for a way to calculate the PV of dividend schedule for cash/discrete dividends.

basically I want to value options using cash or discrete dividends rather than a dividend yield.

Appreciate suggestions.

You want to use the DividendVanillaOption class.  See
test-suite/dividendoption.cpp for examples.
