If Alan has a further patch and hasn't even submitted it for
inclusion, it's obviously not in.
I had just queried Joe Darcy at Sun about reviewing my patches for
Karatsuba and Toom-Cook multiplication in BigInteger again last week.
His reply was:
"Yes, I apologize again for the repeated delays; I want to get your
Karatsuba work reviewed and integrated within this JDK 7 milestone (the
next few weeks)."
How's this going? (2 years later.)
Still going!
Sorry again for the repeated and long delays; the last two years have
been eventful in other areas.
As you may have seen, I've just recently pushed a large changeset
primarily addressing performance tuning in BigDecimal [1]. With some
other large reviews I have oustanding and JavaOne, etc., I think I
should be able to have your BigInteger patches integrated into JDK 8 by
the end of the year.
After the changes are in JDK 8, it is possible for them to be backported
to the JDK 7 update train.
Thanks,
-Joe
