Hi Ben,
That sounds good.
My current application needs a solution with real numbers and then a
solution with complex numbers using the real solution as reference.
The intent is to write the equation system in the application built
with real numbers, and then read it again for the library built with
complex numbers. I will look into XDR to see if I could get this behavior.
