Detailed Description

template<class ArgumentsType, class ResultsType>
class QuantLib::GenericEngine< ArgumentsType, ResultsType >

template base class for option pricing engines

Derived engines only need to implement the calculate() method.

getArguments()

template<class ArgumentsType, class ResultsType>

PricingEngine::arguments * getArguments ( ) const

overridevirtual

Implements PricingEngine.

getResults()

template<class ArgumentsType, class ResultsType>

const PricingEngine::results * getResults ( ) const

overridevirtual

Implements PricingEngine.

reset()

template<class ArgumentsType, class ResultsType>

void reset ( )

overridevirtual

Implements PricingEngine.

update()

template<class ArgumentsType, class ResultsType>

void update ( )

overridevirtual

This method must be implemented in derived classes. An instance of Observer does not call this method directly: instead, it will be called by the observables the instance registered with when they need to notify any changes.

Implements Observer.

Reimplemented in LatticeShortRateModelEngine< Arguments, Results >, LatticeShortRateModelEngine< CallableBond::arguments, CallableBond::results >, LatticeShortRateModelEngine< CapFloor::arguments, CapFloor::results >, LatticeShortRateModelEngine< Swaption::arguments, Swaption::results >, and LatticeShortRateModelEngine< VanillaSwap::arguments, VanillaSwap::results >.
