As you have correctly surmise, solving this requires a full rewrite of about 50 functions in the underlying C library, all of which are written in a way that will use 32-bit integer types on Windows.
This is a large undertaking and, so far, nobody has been willing to embark on this. With enough volunteers, we could do this in a reasonable time but I am not keen to start unless we get a group who are fully committed to help in the implementation. In the meantime, as you suggest, it is straightforward to add a few C++ calls that access the sx/ux functions (constructors, copy, conversion). I just added these in the MPIR SVN repository. *Brian* * * -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "mpir-devel" group.
