Enum Class Side

java.lang.Object

java.lang.Enum<Side>

com.quantfinlib.core.Side

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<Side>, Constable

public enum Side
extends Enum<Side>

Order side. Until 2.4 this was com.quantfinlib.orderbook.Side; it moved to core in 3.0 because stable packages (execution, backtest, microstructure, regulatory, risk) take it in their signatures while orderbook moved to the low-latency module (docs/MIGRATION_3.0.md, section 8). Constants and methods are unchanged.
