This is my review of the XInt library.
Thank you for the review, and the comments.
[...] One area that does not follow this emulation of C++ integer types which I would like to see is the ability to convert back and forth to floating point types, since one can do this with built-in integer types. It would be very nice if this were part of the library since converting to C++ integer types and then to a floating point type will fail if the extended integer type is too large for a C++ integer type. But the range of floating point types is large enough for most extended integer values. [...]
Unfortunately, I haven't yet found any definitive way to supply those conversions. I think they could be done with a string conversion in between, but I haven't tried it yet. The rest of your comments have been noted for future implementation. Thank you again. -- Chad Nelson Oak Circle Software, Inc. * * *
