QuantLibX: Defining a OIS

Hamard, Stéphane

Hello,

 

I want to price overnight index swap, but the swap functions allow only IborIndex.

 

Do you know a work around to define and use compounded index?

 

Thanks for your help.

Stéphane.

It's not much of a workaround. You can inherit a class from Coupon which
calculates the amounts of your overnight-index swap, create a vector of
cash-flows containing your coupons, and use the Swap class instead of
VanillaSwap.

P.S. If you can contribute it, I'll be glad to include it in the
library.
