Hi All! I hereby request a formal review of the Numeric Conversions library, which can be found here:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/boost/files/numeric_conversions.zip Here's an except of the 'Overview' documentation section: -------------------------------------------------- The Boost Numeric Conversion library is a collection of tools to describe and perform conversions between values of different numeric types. The library includes a special alternative for a subset of std::numeric_limits<>, the bounds<> traits class, which provides a consistent way to obtain the boundary values for the range of a numeric type. It also includes a traits class conversion_traits<> which describes the compile-time properties of a conversion from a source to a target numeric type. Both arithmetic and user-defined numeric types can be used. A policy-based converter object which uses conversion_traits<> to select an optimized implementation is supplied. Such implementation uses an optimal range checking code suitable for the source/target combination. The converter's out-of-range behavior can be customized via an OverflowHandler policy. For floating-point to integral conversions, the rounding mode can be selected via the Float2IntRounder policy. can be passed via a RawConverter policy. The optimized automatic range-checking logic can be overridden via a UserRangeChecker policy. ------------------------- Fernando Cacciola _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
