The original question still remains. Should a boost::complex class rely on the std::complex implementation no matter how (im-)precise or should boost provide a truly precise complex class.
Believing that 'if a little does it well, a lot will do it better', I would say go for a truly precise complex class. But if both behaviours can not-too-painfully be provided using a macro, that might please everyone. Paul --- Paul A.
