To use this, ensure that clang support was selected in Visual Studio Installer, then set the PlatformToolset environment variable to "ClangCL" and build as normal from the command line.
It remains unsupported, but at least is possible now for experimentation.
Move definition of UNUSED from modified headers of libmpdec to
_decimal.c itself. This makes the vendored source closer to the
standalone library and fixes build with --with-system-libmpdec.
Tested to build fine with either system libmpdec or the vendored one.
Declare functions with EXTINLINE:
* mpd_del()
* mpd_uint_zero()
* mpd_qresize()
* mpd_qresize_zero()
* mpd_minalloc()
These functions are implemented with "inline" or "ALWAYS_INLINE", but
declared without inline which cause linker error on Visual Studio in
Debug mode when using /Ob1.
_decimal:
o Make all "mpd_t to C integer" conversion functions available in both the
64-bit and the 32-bit versions.
o Make all mixed mpd_t/C integer arithmetic functions available in the
32-bit version.
o Better handling of __STDC_LIMIT_MACROS for C++ users.
o Add struct tags (at the request of C++ users).
2) Check for libmpdec.so.2 if --with-system-libmpdec is used.
required for a corner case in dec_hash() in the following commit and also
usually faster. dec_hash() needs some extra precision above MPD_MAX_PREC,
and _mpd_base_ndivmod() is not audited for that.
2) Use _mpd_basemul() if the length of the smaller operand is less than
or equal to 256. While this is technically an optimization, it is
required for *testing* corner cases in dec_hash() in reasonable time.
None of the _mpd_shortadd() or _mpd_shortmul() functions read uninitialized
values. Previously zeroing was required since _mpd_real_size() was called
on the output array.
use log10() to calculate the size of the output array. The current code
has been tested on x86/amd64 (and to a lesser extent on qemu-mips qemu-sparc)
and produces sufficiently large values for all inputs tested so far (coefficient
sizes of 10**18 - 1 are hard to test exhaustively).
The new code does not rely on the correctness of log10() and resizes
the output arrays if the allocated space is insufficient.
