std::fetestexcept

Since C++11

Header: <cfenv>

Determines which of the specified subset of the floating point exceptions are currently set. The argument excepts is a bitwise OR of the floating point exception macros.

# Declarations

int fetestexcept( int excepts );

(since C++11)

# Parameters

# Return value

Bitwise OR of the floating-point exception macros that are both included in excepts and correspond to floating-point exceptions currently set.

# Example

#include <cfenv>
#include <cmath>
#include <iostream>
 
// #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON
 
volatile double zero = 0.0; // volatile not needed where FENV_ACCESS is supported
volatile double one = 1.0;  // volatile not needed where FENV_ACCESS is supported
 
int main()
{
    std::feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT);
    std::cout <<  "1.0/0.0 = " << 1.0 / zero << '\n';
    if (std::fetestexcept(FE_DIVBYZERO))
        std::cout << "division by zero reported\n";
    else
        std::cout << "division by zero not reported\n";
 
    std::feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT);
    std::cout << "1.0/10 = " << one / 10 << '\n';
    if (std::fetestexcept(FE_INEXACT))
        std::cout << "inexact result reported\n";
    else
        std::cout << "inexact result not reported\n";
 
    std::feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT);
    std::cout << "sqrt(-1) = " << std::sqrt(-1) << '\n';
    if (std::fetestexcept(FE_INVALID))
        std::cout << "invalid result reported\n";
    else
        std::cout << "invalid result not reported\n";
}
