A partial implementation of fixed-point in a Boost-like style based on proposal N3352 is now available.
... But your links don't work,
Indeed :-( (
The correct link to the docs for some years used to be
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/43940943/modular-boost/ libs/fixed_point/doc/html/index.html
but sadly this no longer works for reasons that so far escape me (but I suspect some change at Dropbox?).
Meanwhile here is a PDF version to whet your appetite until I get a html version publicly available.

Boost.Fixed_point ? ===============
A partial implementation of fixed-point in a Boost-like style based on proposal N3352 is now available.
This work is the result of developments from 2013-2016, including efforts from GSoC 2015.
The source code is available at: https://github.com/ BoostGSoC15/fixed_point
(The master branch will be stable for a while but the develop branch may be updated in the light of your feedback).
Preliminary docs are available at:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/43940943/modular-boost/ libs/fixed_point/index.html
We are potentially interested in submitting this work for inclusion in Boost.
We are now requesting comments and suggestions for improvements, corrections and any further test results if these become available.
Some key library features include:
* proper C++ header-only implementation * full numeric_limits and <cmath> functions * flexible template choice of split between resolution and range * automatic selection of underlying integral representation * portability and high efficiency for bare metal microcontrollers * interoperation with Boost.Math * seamless extension to high-precision using Boost.Multiprecision * extensive test suite
Thank you for your consideration. Best regards,
Christopher Kormanyos
And apologies from Paul.
Hi, I'm a bit surprised I didn't see this work before. Are you aware that SG14, the gamedev, real-time simulations, embedded software and financing study group for the standard is working on fixed point real proposal too? Here is a version of the proposal: http://johnmcfarlane.github.io/fixed_point/papers/p0037r2.html and http://johnmcfarlane.github.io/fixed_point/papers/p0381r0.html I will notify SG14 in case they missed your work too.
