[PPL-devel] Re: C++ interface and long-longs

GMP's C++ interface currently does not support constructors and accessors taking long-longs and long-doubles. Are there any plans to relax this limitation, at least as far as long-longs are concerned?

The problem for the C functions is outlined in tasks.html. I'd like to add longlong conversions for gcc, and worry later about other possible compilers with or without that type.

For C++ is longlong is always available? If there's no risk of a missing type then I guess we could do something about conversions for mpz_class etc, even if initially they come out as slightly bloated code.
