  <h1>Policies</h1>

  <p>The <code>interval</code> template requires two arguments. The first
  corresponds to the base type chosen for the bounds. And the second defines
  the <a href="rounding.htm">rounding</a> and <a href=
  "checking.htm">checking</a> behaviors of the newly constructed class. This
  second argument is not mandatory but may need some customizations. In order
  to ease the manipulations, some helper templates are provided in
  <code>interval/policies.hpp</code>.</p>
  <pre>
namespace boost {
namespace numeric {
namespace interval_lib {

template&lt;class Rounding, class Checking&gt;
struct policies {
  typedef Rounding rounding;
  typedef Checking checking;
};

template&lt;class OldInterval, class NewRounding&gt;
struct change_rounding {
  typedef ... type;
};

template&lt;class OldInterval, class NewChecking&gt;
struct change_checking {
  typedef ... type;
};

template&lt;class OldInterval&gt;
struct unprotect {
  typedef ... type;
};

} // namespace interval_lib
} // namespace numeric
} // namespace boost
</pre>

  <p>The <code>policies</code> template should be used whenever the user
  needs to define a policy structure for an <code>interval</code> class.
  <code>change_rounding</code> and <code>change_checking</code> can be used
  to get the type of a new interval by changing one of the policies of an old
  interval; the new type is available thanks to the type definition
  <code>type</code>. Finally, <code>unprotect</code> looks like
  <code>change_rounding</code> and directly changes the rounding of an
  interval to its unprotected version (a better explanation is available
  <a href="rounding.htm#perfexp">here</a>).</p>
