Automatic conversion of the NetBSD pkgsrc CVS module, use with care
43bf07b586
Differences from previous version (5.5.2): 2013.02.15: Changes between NTL 5.5.2 and 6.0 Replaced the old template-like macros for vectors, matrices, and pairs with true template classes: Vec<T>, Mat<T>, and Pair<S,T>. For backwards compatibilty, all the names that were used in previous versions (e.g., vec_ZZ_p, mat_ZZ_p) have been replaced with appropriate typedefs. For many years, I resisted the temptation of using templates, because compiler support was very inconsistent. But that no longer seems to be the case. This change, while rather sweeping, should create very few, if any, incompatibilities with existing software. The biggest issue would be for software that uses the old template-like macros: such macro invocations can simply be replaced with appropriate typedefs. Made the conversion interface more complete and uniform. Also, using template notation, one can and should now write conv<ZZ>(a) instead of to_ZZ(a) (for backward compatibility, all the old names to_XXX are still there, but many new conversions are not available under these old names). There are many new conversions provided. Moreover, whenever there is a conversion from a ring R to a ring S, there is a corresponding, coefficiet-wise conversion from the polynomial ring R[X] to the polynomial ring R[X]. In addition, using the template mechanism, there are generic conversions for vectors and matrices. For example, if there is a conversion from S to T, then there is automatically a corresponding component-wise conversion from Vec<S> to Vec<T>. Introduced a more general mechanism for accessing GF2's in packed structures via indexing (see the class ref_GF2 in the GF2 module). Employed ideas from David Harvey to make the single-precision FFT faster (about twice as fast in many cases). This speeds up many higher-level operations. Fixed all known bugs. |
