NAME
fetestexcept - test floating-point exception flags
SYNOPSIS
#include <fenv.h> int fetestexcept(int excepts);
DESCRIPTION
The fetestexcept() function shall determine which of a specified subset of the floating-point exception flags are currently set. The excepts argument specifies the floating-point status flags to be queried.
RETURN VALUE
The fetestexcept() function shall return the value of the bitwise-inclusive OR of the floating-point exception macros corresponding to the currently set floating-point exceptions included in excepts.
ERRORS
No errors are defined. The following sections are informative.
EXAMPLES
The following example calls function f() if an invalid exception is set, and then function g() if an overflow exception is set: #include <fenv.h> /* ... */ { #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON int set_excepts; feclearexcept(FE_INVALID | FE_OVERFLOW); // maybe raise exceptions set_excepts = fetestexcept(FE_INVALID | FE_OVERFLOW); if (set_excepts & FE_INVALID) f(); if (set_excepts & FE_OVERFLOW) g(); /* ... */ }
APPLICATION USAGE
None.
RATIONALE
None.
FUTURE DIRECTIONS
None.
