NAME

fesettrapenable() — set exception trap enables

SYNOPSIS

#include <fenv.h>

void fesettrapenable(int excepts);

DESCRIPTION

The fesettrapenable() function enables the exception traps indicated by the argument excepts and disables the exception traps not indicated by the argument. The argument can be constructed as a bitwise OR of the exception macros: FE_INEXACT, FE_DIVBYZERO, FE_UNDERFLOW, FE_OVERFLOW, and FE_INVALID. FE_ALL_EXCEPT represents all the exceptions.

USAGE

To use this function, compile either with the default -Ae option or with the -Aa and -D_HPUX_SOURCE options. Make sure your program includes <fenv.h>.

For Itanium(R)-based systems, specify +Ofenvaccess on the compiler command line or place the call to this function under the effect of an affirmative FENV_ACCESS pragma:

#pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON

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

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

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

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

For more information, see the HP-UX Floating-Point Guide.

RETURN VALUE

None.

ERRORS

No errors are defined.

EXAMPLES

Enable overflow and divide by zero traps and disable the others

#include <fenv.h> /*...*/ fesettrapenable(FE_OVERFLOW | FE_DIVBYZERO);
