Usage

This section illustrates intended use of this component.

Example 1: Basic Syntax

The following snippets of code provide a simple illustration of using bbldc::DayCountConvention.

First, we create a variable convention of type bbldc::DayCountConvention::Enum and initialize it to the value bbldc::DayCountConvention::e_ISMA_30_360:

bbldc::DayCountConvention::Enum convention =
                                  bbldc::DayCountConvention::e_ISMA_30_360;

Now, we store the address of its ASCII representation in a pointer variable, asciiValue, of type const char *:

const char *asciiValue = bbldc::DayCountConvention::toAscii(convention);
assert(0 == bsl::strcmp(asciiValue, "ISMA_30_360"));

Finally, we print convention to bsl::cout;

bsl::cout << convention << bsl::endl;

This statement produces the following output on stdout:

ISMA_30_360
