Hi Sara,

As it says on the tin: Wrap the BN (BigNumber) library in OpenSSL. https://wiki.php.net/rfc/openssl.bignumIf I'm reading the patch correctly, do all the methods accepting BigNums also accept PHP integers and strings, including hexadecimal strings? Also, what happens for floats, or numeric strings with a decimal point or exponent? Will it be accepted, rejected, silently truncated? I'm guessing it won't produce PHP 7.1's notices and warnings for invalid numeric strings (though I don't suggest cloning that specific behaviour, an outright error would be better). Thanks! -- Andrea Faulds https://ajf.me/
