	Hi,

I would like to know if the numeric_limits<> class becomes to the standard 
library and if someone is working on its implementation.


Regards, Max

Hi, Edward

i don't understand how you're going to handle
specialization for float/double, particulary
is_iec559 member and NAN stuff.

It's highly platform dependant and numeric_limits should be 
actually generated on the fly (at least in part) 
in configure/Makefile.

Another interesting question is how numeric_limits
specializarion for float/double will live
together with -ffast-math option.

just a thought...

regards

OK

Please consider integrating the numeric_limits template (which I have
provided a start on the code for) in a future release of egcs, as
specified by the ANSI/ISO C++ spec:
