const integer get_sub( const integer &, const integer & ) const; By the way here no size_type is used, because size_type suffices for the range of bytes, but not for the range of bits, which is a factor 8 larger.
Is that worth worrying about? Even on 32-bit operating systems, a 4 gigabit integer is pretty big. -- Martin Bonner Martin.Bonner@Pitechnology.com Pi Technology, Milton Hall, Ely Road, Milton, Cambridge, CB4 6WZ, ENGLAND Tel: +44 (0)1223 203894
Will the to_string be templated so as to be able to use wstring? I would hate to have to use another conversion function.
In the design decisions I have recommended to use the wide stringstream for conversion to wide strings. Then the user can set the locale etc. in the wide stringstream. When converting directly to a wide string I see no added value, because I cannot get any wide string info from a return value. Regards, Maarten.
