Yes, libstdc++ support is on the wishlist, even though it's beyond the scope of the avr-libc project. Likewise, 64-bit doubles are on the wishlist (as an option to the current implementation), but again, this is much of a compiler issue rather than library only. My preference would be a compiler option much like we've got -mint8, so perhaps "-mdouble32" which enables the current behaviour, defaulting to double being 64 bits as this is what the ISO C standard asks for (well, sort of, but they're asking for *more* than 32-bit FP for the "double" datatype, and while 48 bits would satisfy their requirements, it's IMHO not possible to implement a 48-bit datatype in GCC). I think the standard feature set of avr-libc is pretty much settled, and does not call for many more extensions. (Disclaimer: that's my very personal opinion.) -- cheers, J"org .-.-. --... ...-- -.. .
