NAME

       fesetenv() - set floating-point environment

SYNOPSIS

   HP Integrity Server Only
   PA-RISC Only
DESCRIPTION

       The  function  establishes the floating-point environment represented by the object pointed to by envp.	The argument envp must point to an
       object set by a call to or or equal the macro

       Note that merely installs the state of the floating-point exception flags represented through its argument, and does not raise these float-
       ing-point exceptions (hence no traps will be taken).

USAGE

       To use this function, compile either with the default option or with the and options.  Make sure your program includes

       For Integrity servers, specify on the compiler command line or place the call to this function under the effect of an affirmative pragma:

       If  the pragma is placed outside of any top-level declarations in a file, the pragma will apply to all declarations in the compilation fol-
       lowing the pragma until another pragma is encountered or until the end of the file is reached.

       If the pragma is placed at the beginning of a block (compound statement), the pragma will apply until  another  pragma  is  encountered	or
       until the end of the block is reached.

       For  PA-RISC, you might need to use the compiler option in order to prevent optimizations that can undermine the specified behavior of this
       function.

       Link in the math library by specifying on the compiler or linker command line.

RETURN VALUE

   Integrity Server Only
       This function always returns 0, indicating that the environment was successfully established.

   PA-RISC Only
       None.

ERRORS

       No errors are defined.

EXAMPLES

       Store the current floating-point environment, continue on exceptions, and then restore the previous environment without raising the accumu-
       lated floating-point exceptions.

       Restore the default environment:
