"Uses untimed ANSI C++ as the golden design source": is this pre ISO C++98? :-) Perhaps you should put ISO C++ with some version number there. Kidding aside, the HLS world comes historically from the C world and thus solves problem in the `#pragma` and `__attribute__`. And there is some value in this for customers not wanting to dive into C++ and just having minimal change to the code besides these `#pragma`. But a the same time it is done with a lot of atrocities on the type system when extending this to C++... > That said, I can see potential value (though the SFINAE to get the unsigned > vs signed seems easy enough), but would suggest either the WG14 paper, or to > suggest it to the authors of the WG14 paper and see what they say. Feel free > to include me in the chain. I am not following at all the WG14 papers. I have enough pain just running after the C++ papers... :-( But I might have a look on this one...
