Detailed Description

Provides a robust lexical cast from strings to numeric types with a fallback for edge-case values.

This header wraps boost::lexical_cast and adds a fallback using std::istringstream for certain compiler/platform combinations (e.g. Apple LLVM) that fail to convert very small floating-point numbers such as 0.2225e-307. It also provides template specializations that redirect boost::lexical_cast<float>, boost::lexical_cast<double>, and boost::lexical_cast<long\ double> through the MITK implementation.
