Stefan Krah fdf1a34ba1 Issue #16745: Hide symbols in _decimal.so. 2012-12-22 14:18:35 +01:00
Stefan Krah c35a8e5c98 Proactive reliability fix for broken FPUs: The base conversion functions
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.

Stefan Krah 1919b7e72b Issue #7652: Integrate the decimal floating point libmpdec library to speed
up the decimal module. Performance gains of the new C implementation are
between 12x and 80x, depending on the application.
