[Boost-users] Re: failures and featurerequest in/for numeric_cast

24 Jun 2004

      Hi Peter,

There is already a new version of numeric_cast<> which handles some of the
issues you mentioned.
It's in CVS now, and it will appear in the next release (circa the end of
July _probably_)

"boost/cast.hpp" hasn't changed yet, it will as soon as I see the code
stablilized among different compilers.

In the meantime, you can use "boost/numeric/conversion/cast.hpp" which
contains the new version of numeric_cast<>

I'll look at your code to see what can be incorporated in the new version.

Thanks,
