/// \brief Definition of Teuchos::as, for conversions between types.
///
/// This header file declares Teuchos::as, which is a template
/// function that converts between two different types.  For example,
/// the following code converts from \c double to \c int:
/// \code
/// double d = 3.14;
/// int i = Teuchos::as<double> (d);
/// assert (i == 3);
/// \endcode
/// In a debug build of Teuchos, this code would check for overflow
/// when converting from double (64 bits) to int (32 bits, on most
/// platforms these days), and throw an exception if overflow occurs.
/// In a release build, this code would not check for overflow.  Users
/// who want to check for overflow may use the Teuchos::asSafe
/// template function.  This works the same way as Teuchos::as, except
/// that it always checks for overflow.
///
/// This file includes definitions of a small number of useful
/// conversions.  If you want to define your own conversions, you
/// should specialize the Teuchos::ValueTypeConversionTraits template
/// class for the "to" and "from" types in your conversion.  This
/// automatically defines Teuchos::as and Teuchos::asSafe for your
/// conversion.

/** \class ValueTypeConversionTraits
 * \brief Default traits class for all conversions between value types.
 * \ingroup teuchos_language_support_grp
 *
 * \note Users should never call this class directly.  Please use the
 *   as() or asSafe() template functions.
 *
 * \tparam TypeTo The type to which to convert; the output type.
 * \tparam TypeFrom The type from which to convert; the input type.
 *
 * The type conversion functions as() and asSafe() defined in this
 * file use this traits class to convert between types.  The default
 * implementation of this class simply does an implicit type
 * conversion.  Syntactically, it expects either that TypeTo have a
 * constructor which takes a single TypeFrom argument, like this:
 * \code
 * class TypeTo {
 * public:
 *   TypeTo (const TypeFrom& x);
 * }
 * \endcode
 * or that TypeFrom has an "operator TypeTo()" method, like this:
 * \code
 * class TypeFrom {
 * public:
 *   operator TypeTo ();
 * }
 * \endcode
 * Any conversions which are built into C++ and are safe to do will
 * not need a traits class specialization, and should not generate any
 * compiler warnings.  This includes the conversions <tt>float</tt> to
 * <tt>double</tt>, <tt>short</tt> to <tt>int</tt>, <tt>int</tt> to
 * <tt>long</tt>, or an enum value to <tt>int</tt>.
 *
 * Any conversion which is not syntactically legal according to the
 * above rules <i>must</i> have a specialization.  There are a number
 * of examples in the header file below, including conversions between
 * <tt>qd_real</tt> and various built-in types for which
 * <tt>qd_real</tt> does not provide a native conversion operator.
 * Other examples include <tt>std::string</tt> to <tt>int</tt> or
 * <tt>double</tt>.
 *
 * Any conversion that <i>is</i> syntactically legal, but could cause
 * compiler warnings and/or result in incorrect behavior at run time
 * should be given a specialization that does not rely on an implicit
 * conversion.  This includes the following:
 *
 * - <tt>type</tt> to and from <tt>unsigned type</tt>, where
 *   <tt>type</tt> is a built-in integer type
 * - <tt>double</tt> to <tt>int</tt>, or from any floating-point
 *   type to any integer type where overflow is possible
 *
 * If the user (through as() or asSafe()) requests a conversion for
 * which no specialization of this class exists, then the default
 * implementation below will be instantiated.  If the conversion is
 * not syntactically correct, then the compiler will report a compiler
 * error.  If the conversion is syntactically correct but unsafe, the
 * compiler <i>may</i> report a warning.  In either case, you can fix
 * the error or warning by specializing this class for your
 * combination of types.  There are a number of examples of
 * specializations in this header file, some of which include bounds
 * checking for overflow (for safeConvert()).
 *
 * The IEEE 754 standard defines the result of conversions from a
 * larger to a smaller built-in floating-point type, including
 * <tt>double</tt> to <tt>float</tt>, <tt>long double</tt> to
 * <tt>float</tt>, and \c <tt>long double</tt> to <tt>double</tt>.
 * Such conversions might overflow (result in a value too large in
 * magnitude to fit in the target type) or underflow (result in a
 * value too small to fit in a normalized value of the target type).
 * We <i>never</i> check for overflow or underflow for these
 * conversions.  Their behavior depends on the current rounding mode
 * and whether your hardware and compiler correctly implement
 * denormalized values.  Typically, overflow results in an Inf of the
 * same sign as the input, and underflow results in either a
 * denormalized value or zero.  If you want to do bounds checking, you
 * should set the appropriate trap so that overflow or underflow will
 * raise the SIGFPE signal.  Please refer to the IEEE 754 standard for
 * details.  Note that safeConvert() conversions from e.g.,
 * std::string to built-in floating-point types still should check for
 * overflow.
 *
 * \note We cannot promise that converting from T1 to T2 and back
 *   again will result in the same T1 value with which we started.
 *   For example, converting from a long long to a double may result
 *   in truncation, since long long has 63 bits of significand and
 *   double has 53.

 *
 * \section Teuchos_as_User User documentation
 *
 * This template function lets you convert from one value type to
 * another, possibly with checks for overflow (where appropriate) in a
 * debug build of Teuchos.  For example, to convert between int and
 * double:
 * \code
 * double d = 3.14;
 * int i = Teuchos::as<double> (d);
 * assert (i == 3);
 * \endcode
 * In a debug build of Teuchos, this will check for overflow, since
 * there are some double-precision floating-point values that do not
 * fit in a 32-bit integer.  In a release build, this will not check
 * for overflow.  You are responsible for knowing the difference.  If
 * you <i>always</i> want to check for overflow (e.g., to validate
 * user input), use the asSafe() function.  Note that conversion from
 * a floating-point number to an integer, or from a higher-precision
 * floating-point number to a lower-precision floating-point number,
 * may truncate or round (as it does in the above example).  We do
 * not check for truncation or rounding.
 *
 * "Debug build of Teuchos" means more than just building with debug
 * compiler flags.  It means debug checking was turned on when
 * Trilinos was built.  If you are building Trilinos yourself, you may
 * turn on debug checking by setting the
 * <tt>Trilinos_ENABLE_DEBUG</tt> CMake configure option to \c ON
 * (rather than \c OFF, which is the default).  Note that enabling
 * debug checking affects other operations in Teuchos besides this
 * conversion, and may have a significant run-time cost, especially
 * for RCP and ArrayRCP.
 *
 * The IEEE 754 standard defines the result of conversions from a
 * larger to a smaller built-in floating-point type, including
 * <tt>double</tt> to <tt>float</tt>, <tt>long double</tt> to
 * <tt>float</tt>, and \c <tt>long double</tt> to <tt>double</tt>.
 * Such conversions might overflow (result in a value too large in
 * magnitude to fit in the target type) or underflow (result in a
 * value too small to fit in a normalized value of the target type).
 * We <i>never</i> check for overflow or underflow for these
 * conversions.  Their behavior depends on the current rounding mode
 * and whether your hardware and compiler correctly implement

 * denormalized value or zero.  If you want to do bounds checking, you
 * should set the appropriate trap so that overflow or underflow will
 * raise the SIGFPE signal.  Please refer to the IEEE 754 standard for
 * details.  Note that debug-mode as() conversions from e.g.,
 * std::string to built-in floating-point types still check for
 * overflow.
 *
 * \note We cannot promise that converting from a type T1 to another
 *   type T2 and back again will result in the same T1 value with
 *   which we started.  For example, converting from a long long to a
 *   double may result in truncation, since long long has 63 bits of
 *   significand and double has 53.
 *
 * \section Teuchos_as_Dev Developer documentation
 *
 * This function uses the traits class ValueTypeConversionTraits to
 * perform checking and conversion.  If debug checking is turned on,
 * this function uses the traits class' safeConvert() method to
 * perform possibly checked conversion.  Otherwise, it uses the traits
 * class' convert() method for unchecked conversion.
 *
 * If you want to specialize this function's behavior, you should
 * specialize ValueTypeConversionTraits for your combination of input
 * and output types (TypeFrom resp. TypeTo).  Be sure to define the
 * specialization in the Teuchos namespace.  We provide
 * specializations of ValueTypeConversionTraits in this file for a
 * variety of types.  You must define both safeConvert() and convert()
 * in the specialization, since as() will call safeConvert() in a
 * debug build and convert() in a release build.
 *
 * \note The implementations below do not consider truncation of
 *   floating-point values to be unsafe conversion.  For example,
 *   converting from a long long (63 bits of significand) to a double
 *   (53 bits of significand) may result in truncation, but we do not
 *   consider this unsafe.  "Unsafe" mainly refers to overflow or lack
