Safe Numerics |
Perform binary operations on arithmetic types. Return either a valid result or an error code. Under no circumstances should an incorrect result be returned.
All template parameters of the functions must model Numeric type requirements.
#include <boost/numeric/safe_numerics/checked_default.hpp> checked_result<int> r = checked::multiply<int>(24, 42);
Some compilers have command line switches (e.g. -ftrapv) which enable special behavior such that erroneous integer operations are detected at run time. The library has been implemented in such a way that these facilities are not used. It's possible they might be helpful in particular environment. These could be be exploited by re-implementing some functions in this library.
