I can see Marius' point of unifying all the integer classes under a single templated class xint::integer_t, but I imagine it will require quite a bit of refactoring.
I've redesigned the whole blasted thing three times already. What's once more?
The good news is that you've learned a great deal in the process! This is the curse and benefit of developing for Boost.
Yes, I've learned several powerful techniques that I wasn't previously aware of. Though I could wish I'd learned them more privately... nothing like parading your ignorance in public, eh? On the plus side, it seems that this redesign shouldn't take nearly as long as the last few. The interface system I came up with for the fourth release looks like it can be adapted to policy-based stuff with fairly few changes to most of the code. On the minus side, it looks like every function will have to be a template, which is something that I tried very hard to avoid in previous implementations. It'll be fast, but if a program uses more than one combination of options, the size will increase greatly. The saving grace, I suppose, is that there shouldn't be much need to use too many option combinations. - -- Chad Nelson Oak Circle Software, Inc. * * * -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkwI+0wACgkQp9x9jeZ9/wQBcwCgnScyWaCtR31292uUSFf0ZGDw mIYAoI7yY9o9r9ldMTNIPYyU3UeLJ3Ux =QerJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
