Hi,
In C99, there is a standardized interface for evaluating floating point
status bits associated with IEE 754 binary floating-point arithmetic.
But there is no such interface for setting individual bits in the
floating point mask, e.g. to trap on specific exception conditions.
I'm curious why this is so. Is this an oversight or was it a deliberate
decision? If it was a deliberate decision: what's the reason?
Thanks
