Class DiscountCurveInterpolation

All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Cloneable, ParameterObject, Curve, DiscountCurveInterface

public class DiscountCurveInterpolation extends CurveInterpolation implements Serializable, DiscountCurveInterface
Implementation of a discount factor curve based on CurveInterpolation. The discount curve is based on the CurveInterpolation class. It thus features all interpolation and extrapolation methods and interpolation entities as CurveInterpolation and implements the DiscountCurve. Note that this version of the DiscountCurveInterpolation will no longer make the assumption that at t=0 its value is 1.0. Such a norming is not necessary since valuation will always divide by the corresponding discount factor at evaluation time. See the implementation of SwapLeg for an example.
