BUKA So, perhaps you could try the C++ class interface. http://gmplib.org/manual/C_002b_002b-Class-Interface.html#C_002b_002b-Class-Interface

Here's an example showing how to use the OpenSSL bignum implementation for arbitrary-precision arithmetic. My example does 264 + 265. I'm using Linux.
#include <cstdio>
#include <openssl/crypto.h>
#include <openssl/bn.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
static const char num1[] = "18446744073709551616";
static const char num2[] = "36893488147419103232";
BIGNUM *bn1 = NULL;
BIGNUM *bn2 = NULL;
BN_CTX *ctx = BN_CTX_new();
BN_dec2bn(&bn1, num1); // convert the string to BIGNUM
BN_dec2bn(&bn2, num2);
BN_add(bn1, bn1, bn2); // bn1 = bn1 + bn2
char *result_str = BN_bn2dec(bn1); // convert the BIGNUM back to string
printf("%s + %s = %s\n", num1, num2, result_str);
OPENSSL_free(result_str);
BN_free(bn1);
BN_free(bn2);
BN_CTX_free(ctx);
return 0;
}
It produces this output:
18446744073709551616 + 36893488147419103232 = 55340232221128654848
You need to have OpenSSL installed with the development libraries. If you have Linux, install the development library from your package manager and link with libcrypto.so
.
g++ bignum.cpp -o bignum -lcrypto
Or download the OpenSSL source and build the static library libcrypto.a
and link with it statically.
g++ bignum.cpp -o bignum -I./openssl-1.0.0/include ./openssl-1.0.0/libcrypto.a
On Windows, you'll need to install from the Windows port of OpenSSL.
