This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.
The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult
the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior),
or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.
.SH NAME
fegetexceptflag, fesetexceptflag \- get and set floating-point status
flags
.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
\fB#include <fenv.h>
.br
.sp
int fegetexceptflag(fexcept_t *\fP\fIflagp\fP\fB, int\fP \fIexcepts\fP\fB);
.br
int fesetexceptflag(const fexcept_t *\fP\fIflagp\fP\fB, int\fP \fIexcepts\fP\fB);
.br
\fP
.SH DESCRIPTION
.LP
The \fIfegetexceptflag\fP() function shall attempt to store an implementation-defined
representation of the states of the
floating-point status flags indicated by the argument \fIexcepts\fP
in the object pointed to by the argument \fIflagp\fP.
.LP
The \fIfesetexceptflag\fP() function shall attempt to set the floating-point
status flags indicated by the argument
\fIexcepts\fP to the states stored in the object pointed to by \fIflagp\fP.
The value pointed to by \fIflagp\fP shall have been
set by a previous call to \fIfegetexceptflag\fP() whose second argument
represented at least those floating-point exceptions
represented by the argument \fIexcepts\fP. This function does not
raise floating-point exceptions, but only sets the state of the
flags.
.SH RETURN VALUE
.LP
If the representation was successfully stored, \fIfegetexceptflag\fP()
shall return zero. Otherwise, it shall return a non-zero
value. If the \fIexcepts\fP argument is zero or if all the specified
exceptions were successfully set, \fIfesetexceptflag\fP()
shall return zero. Otherwise, it shall return a non-zero value.
.SH ERRORS
.LP
No errors are defined.
