I have an implementation on Andreason's method for generating no-arbitrage local vol surfaces. I will submit it into QuantLib after New Years...
Hi
The implementation is based on the original Dupire formula and therefore works only if you have a very "smooth" and well-defined BS volatility surface. The test case
BarrierOptionTest
::
testLocalVolAndHestonComparison
()
shows a usage of it.
This algorithm

might be helpful to generate "smooth" volatility surfaces.
cheers
Klaus
But then is seems to work,
