CmsSpreadCouponPricer doesn't define them, so it's also abstract. LognormalCmsSpreadPricer inherits from CmsSpreadCouponPricer and defines them (that is, gives them actual bodies) so it's a concrete class and can be instantiated. For more details, you can probably check any C++ book.Cheers,LuigiOn Thu, Jan 12, 2017 at 4:52 AM Jerry Jin <[hidden email]> wrote:------------------------------Hello, QuantLib communityI'm getting error 'allocating an object of abstract class type error' sometimes while working with some classesFor example:return new CmsSpreadCouponPricer(correlation); How do I know which class is abstract and can't allocate memory?Thanks!RegardsJerry------------------------------ ------------------
