I made a new release of my multiprecision integer library with the following changes:
- improved documentation - serialization support - bugfixes - improved benchmark tool - prime generation has been reworked - probably some other things which I forgot
I believe it's pretty much ready for review now. The mp_int reference section is slightly lacking in a few places, but other than that I think it's pretty solid.
This looks very useful but I note that http://www.boost.org/development/requirements.html#License and current Boost practice is that all the files include the Boost license text. (This should include the .qbk as well - as a Quickbook comment. Tedious but you can paste). [/ mp_int.qbk Copyright Kevin Sopp. Distributed under the Boost Software License, Version 1.0. (See accompanying file LICENSE_1_0.txt or copy at http://www.boost.org/LICENSE_1_0.txt). ] (This is to allow people to use it without hassle from their legal people - which like to go over everything with a fine tooth comb). I don't see that your 'in the public domain' (rather ill-defined?) is any different from the Boost license text, so this is a mainly cosmetic matter. For some or all the source code, you could also include Tom St. Denis in the copyright too?
