Hi Wilkie,
in order to construct correcly a qlXibor object you need to provide an
already existing term structure. For example you could have
qlXibor("myXibor", "Usdibor", "2M", 2, "USD", "UnitedStates::NYSE",
"Modified Following", "Actual/360", "UsdYieldCurve"), where the term
structure UsdYieldCurve has been previously set up (using for example
the function qlPiecewiseYieldCurve). The purpose of this parameter is
to allow the calculation of forecasted fixings.
qlXibor() is the right place to start if you aim to build Ibor- and
Libor-like indexes in QLXL.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Katie
