Creating and configuring a currency converter
You can use interfaces in the com.apama.ccyconverter package to define a currency converter. A currency converter is used to normalize positions, values and prices from their trading currency to a base currency that you specify.
When you create a currency converter you are provided with an interface to that currency converter. For example, when you create a realized profit and loss default position tracker you must specify a currency converter. The tracker uses the currency converter's interface to obtain data required to normalize values.
This section provides information and instructions for creating and configuring a currency converter. Sample code is in the samples\Currency Converter Sample directory in your CMF installation directory. The code examples in this section are taken from that sample.
