[ANNOUNCEMENT] big_int-1.0.3 (stable) Released.

The new PECL package big_int-1.0.3 (stable) has been released at http://pecl.php.net/. Release notes ------------- * fixed the bug in big_int_create() function, which does not actually return the big_int it created. Thanks to Paul Vincent Craven (paul at cravenfamily.com) * fixed wrong include path in /tests/bitset.php * fixed possible bug in bin_op() function in /libbig_int/src/bitset_funcs.c, when parameter [a] or [b] points to the same address as [answer] - removed unnesessary /PEAR folder, which contained of Crypt_RSA package. This package is available at http://chat.finalcombat.com/valyala/big_int/ page. Package Info ------------- Functions from this package are useful for number theory applications. For example, in two-keys cryptography. See /tests/RSA.php in the package for example of simple implementation of RSA-like cryptoalgorithm. See http://chat.finalcombat.com/vayala/big_int/ page for more complex implementation of RSA-like crypto, which supports key generating, encrypting/decrypting, signing and validating of sign. The package has many bitset functions, which allow to work with arbitrary length bitsets. This package is much faster than bundled into PHP BCMath and consists almost all functions, which are implemented in PHP GMP extension, but it needn't any external libraries.
