The implementation is complete, with 5 policies created (and users can always create and use more). The policies are:
ignore_overflow throw_overflow assert_overflow saturate_overflow nan_overflow
The implementation is fully portable, and it provides integer types which can be used like the builtin integers, except they will trigger their policy on an overflow.
Also, this library will integrate seamlessly with the Boost Constrained Value Library (contributed by Robert Kawulak).
Does this pique anyone's interest?
Yes! I've been using Microsoft's safeint (http://safeint.codeplex.com) for a while, but something more built into boost would be nice.
Yea, I wanted to call my library SafeInt, but Microsoft's library already uses that name. The same is true of BoundedInt, a great name but already taken.
I would love for this library to be accepted into Boost, given the portable nature of the implementation, and the attention to performance in the implementation. Thank you, Ben Robinson
