This file documents some of the changes in
LiDIA-1.3 which cause incompability with
earlier versions of LiDIA.


class bigint:
@@@@@@@@@@@@@

The constructor bigint(double) was replaced by the
assignment-function void bigint::assign(double) 
to avoid unexspected behaviour of the class
bigint when adding a bigint and a double.


class base_vector<T>:
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

The function base_vector<T>::member now returns
a const-reference instead of a reference. 


class bigfloat/bigint_lattice_gensys/basis:
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ 

This classes are obsolete. Please use the
new classes bigfloat/bigint_lattice. The old
classes are not available in this alpa-release,
but will be again in the major release 1.3. With 
LiDIA-1.4 these classes will be removed.
