Re: [boost] About FFT.h.gz

I'd love to see fftw converted to c++.  I have tried it, but it's a
big job.

The author's of fftw are not apparantly interested in this effort.

If anyone is interested, the source is at fftw.org.  The real "source"
is written in CAML, IIRC.

One annoying problem is caused by the design of the std complex data
type.  real (z), for example, is not an lvalue.  Life would be a lot
easier if it was.  It is possible to work around this by using a
modified complex type that returns a proxy, so that statements like

real(x)=blah

will work.

But that's only the start of the effort.
