Would there be public interest in a template like that in the boost library?
Yes, very much so. My main use case is also image processing. It would be useful if you could compare your work to other implementations, such as: * Phil Endecott's related proposal last year, and the ensuing discussion: http://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2007/04/120082.php * Dr. Dobbs, "Fixed-Point Arithmetic Types for C++," http://www.ddj.com/cpp/184401992 How are multiplication and division handled? Is overflow detection and/or saturation arithmetic supported? Cheers, Patrick
