Ah... that's unfortunate. Good to know before I start patching mpirxx.h myself :) > This is a large undertaking and, so far, nobody has been willing to embark > on this.

I am still puzzled about why the compiler didn't automatically upcast given the constructor from long long, but maybe the reason is that assignment or copy were still missing as well. Thanks a lot for the quick responses, Brian and Bill! I'll see whether the SVN version fixes the incompatibilities in my case. - Joris -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "mpir-devel" group.
