Add CrossCurrencySwapRateHelper
There is currently MtMCrossCurrencyBasisSwapRateHelper available in Quantlib Python. Please could expert here help to create CrossCurrencySwapRateHelper? This helper will be fixed/float instead of float/float. Much appreciated.
Hi! I'd like to take this issue.
Much appreciated @uzi101 .
There is work being currently done on const-notional CCX, see https://github.com/lballabio/QuantLib/pull/2248.
Question: are you sure we need a fixed/float helper? As far as I know those CCX are not quoted and might not be the best choice for building a curve.
Hi @lballabio, I took a look at #2248 and it seems to cover what I was planning to build here.
Is there another open issue you’d recommend I look at? I’d really love to contribute to QuantLib wherever help is needed!
Hi @lballabio , CCX (deliverable and Non-deliverable) fixed vs SOFR are quoted in some of the Asian markets so I reckon we should have it.
Hi @lballabio Is it okay to go ahead with this ticket please?
It's ok.
Thanks @lballabio and @LZ1153! I’ll start exploring the implementation for this then.
Thank you @lballabio @uzi101
Hi @lballabio @LZ1153 , I’ve submitted a PR for the CrossCurrencySwapRateHelper.

Thank you @uzi101 @lballabio !
Hi @uzi101 @lballabio , Please can I confirm the this helper will be exposed to Python binding? Thanks!
Nothing is certain in life except death and taxes :) But yes, I'll try to export it before next release.
That's gold! Much appreciated @lballabio .
Hi Luigi @lballabio, I was wondering if you already have the next release date in sight? The reason I am asking is because I was working on some additional features, e.g. non-deliverable cross currency swap rate helpers and the question here https://github.com/lballabio/QuantLib/issues/2399. Depending on the release plan I could either hurry up or wait for the next one, both of which would be fine. Many thanks!
Hi Marcin, I'll cut the release early in January.
Great, thank you for the heads-up!
