New submission from Stefan Krah <stefan at bytereef.org>:
Synopsis: There are no relevant new features for _decimal, but it would be too much work/error prone to have divergent code in libmpdec-2.5.0 and Python 3.9, especially for the Linux distributions.
I'll release libmpdec-2.5.0/libmpdec++-2.5.0 in a month or so. The standalone lib needs the new versions of mpd_qsqrt() and mpd_qdiv(), because it allows identical result/input args. This is not needed for _decimal, but the distributions should have the correct version.
In detail
=========
- Use Google style guide for header guards and includes.
- Update mpdecimal.h for C++11.
- Use minimum set of includes.
- Whitespace fixes.
- Add annotations to suppress false positives from static analyzers.
- Small rewrite in base conversion functions to suppress false positives
from static analyzers.
- MSVC: make libmpdec /W4 warning free and replace UNUSED with void casts.
- MSVC: C++ fixes in vccompat.h.
- Make a couple of quiet functions safe for being called with a dirty status
(irrelevant for _decimal and not recommended anyway -- always set the status
to 0 before calling a quiet function).
- Add the sqrt/div versions that are already in the Python libmpdec but not
in the upstream libmpdec. Also make them safe for identical result/operand
arguments (irrelevant for _decimal, since Decimals are immutable).
New functions for the upcoming libmpdec++ (unused in _decimal)
==============================================================
- mpd_qset_string_exact()
- mpd_qset_i64_exact()
- mpd_qset_u64_exact()
- mpd_qcopy_cxx()
