A refresh of the .zip file for the Endian library, based on comments received so far, is available at http://mysite.verizon.net/~beman/endian-0.2.zip The docs are online at http://mysite.verizon.net/~beman/endian-0.2/libs/endian/index.html Changes include: * Templates are exposed. * The four outermost templates have been folded into a single endian class template. * The integer_cover_operators class template has been moved into a separate header file, boost/integer_cover_operators.hpp. No docs yet, but functionality is pretty obvious from the header. * Provision has been made for native endianness. Not implemented yet. * More explicit names have been given to the forty-four typedefs. A careful explanation of the naming rationale has been added to the docs. * The docs have been expanded. * The example program has been rewritten and is much more realistic. * I haven't looked at Scott McMurray's exact.hpp header yet, so that may kick off yet more changes to come. --Beman
