Re: [csmith-dev] Floating-point support in csmith

I remember randprog used to had dependency on boost, and either Eric or John cut the dependency. Maybe it's not as unpleasant as Yang thought?

I never did this before, but my gut feeling is that it's not an easy job to extract something from the Boost code base, which is extremely heavily templated. Although it may depend on which functionality that we want to harvest, still, I wouldn't consider it as a pleasant task :)
