[boost] Re: meta-double

I wonder how this can be implemented. How could you separate the decimal part and the exponent part from the double literal like 3.14159 Would you upload the code to boost-sandbox vault?:) Peder Holt wrote:

Is there any interest in a compile-time meta-version of double?

Syntax:

//Definition typedef META_DOUBLE(3.1415926535897932384626433) pi; //Or META_DOUBLE(3.1415926535897932384626433) pi_;

//Mathematical operations typedef math::meta::add<pi,pi>::type pi2;

//Evaluation: assert(META_DOUBLE_EVAL(pi2)==3.1415926535897932384626433*2);

This implementation uses two ints to represent the decimals, and a short to represent the exponent.

It has been tested on VC7.1,VC8.0 beta and GCC3.2
