- .SH SYNOPSIS
- .LP
- .nf
- #include <fenv.h>
- .P
- int fegetexceptflag(fexcept_t *\fIflagp\fP, int \fIexcepts\fP);
- int fesetexceptflag(const fexcept_t *\fIflagp\fP, int \fIexcepts\fP);
- .fi
- .SH DESCRIPTION
- The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with the
- ISO\ C standard. Any conflict between the requirements described here and the
- ISO\ C standard is unintentional. This volume of POSIX.1\(hy2017 defers to the ISO\ C standard.
- .P
- The
- \fIfegetexceptflag\fR()
- function shall attempt to store an implementation-defined representation
- of the states of the floating-point status flags indicated by the argument
- .IR excepts
- in the object pointed to by the argument
- .IR flagp .
- .P
- The
- \fIfesetexceptflag\fR()
- function shall attempt to set the floating-point status flags indicated
- by the argument
- .IR excepts
- to the states stored in the object pointed to by
- .IR flagp .
- The value pointed to by
- .IR flagp
- shall have been set by a previous call to
- \fIfegetexceptflag\fR()
- whose second argument represented at least those floating-point
- exceptions represented by the argument
- .IR excepts .
- This function does not raise floating-point exceptions, but only sets
- the state of the flags.
- .SH "RETURN VALUE"
- If the representation was successfully stored,
- \fIfegetexceptflag\fR()
- shall return zero. Otherwise, it shall return a non-zero value. If the
- .IR excepts
- argument is zero or if all the specified exceptions were successfully
- set,
- \fIfesetexceptflag\fR()
- shall return zero. Otherwise, it shall return a non-zero value.
- .SH ERRORS
- No errors are defined.
