Hi,
From: Jeff Garland
Well, as you're already aware there are versions of these things that are used in the implementation of date-time. The basic requirements are/were:
[snip reqirements] Thanks! I've taken a glance at them and it seems the library already fulfills all but...
2) These need special addition/subtraction with remainder/overflow. So, for example, take the following wrapping_int<integer, 1, 7> wi; //wi == 1; wi.add(8); // wi == 2 -- returns 1 (wrapped once) wi.subtract(8); //wi == 1 -- returns 1 (wrapped once)
Well, this needs thinking over...
I'm also interested in your string stuff -- is there a current draft of stuff posted somewhere?
Not yet, I'll do this as soon as the code is suitable for posting ;-)
Also, I'd be willing at some point to experiment with replacing my date-time implementations with yours -- it would be an easy way to test that I got all the use cases right ;-)
That's a great idea! Best regards, Robert
