GET_IEEE_INTERRUPTS - Retrieves flags that represent the current floating-point interrupt status
As shipped in IRIX 6.5. First release of IRIX 6.5.
NAME GET_IEEE_INTERRUPTS - Retrieves flags that represent the current floating-point interrupt status SYNOPSIS GET_IEEE_INTERRUPTS ([STATUS=]status) IMPLEMENTATION UNICOS/mk and IRIX systems CRAY T90 systems that support IEEE floating-point arithmetic STANDARDS CF90 and MIPSpro 7 Fortran 90 compiler extension to Fortran 90 IEEE Standard for Binary Floating-point Arithmetic DESCRIPTION The GET_IEEE_INTERRUPTS intrinsic subroutine is typically called upon entry to a procedure to obtain a set of flags that represent the current floating-point interrupt status. It accepts the following argument: status Must be scalar and of an integer type that occupies a full word. It is an INTENT(OUT) argument. For the names of all possible interrupts, see GET_IEEE_STATUS(3I). This subroutine increases program performance by capturing and then directly manipulating the status bits with bit manipulation operations. This practice compromises portability, however. The name of this intrinsic cannot be passed as an argument. Some of the bits of status are set to indicate the floating-point interrupts that are currently enabled or currently disabled. The state of any given interrupt can be determined using TEST_IEEE_INTERRUPT(3I) and can be altered using ENABLE_IEEE_INTERRUPT(3I) or DISABLE_IEEE_INTERRUPT(3I). NOTES The IEEE intrinsic procedures use the named constants contained in a system module, so you must include one of the following statements in your program: * On UNICOS and UNICOS/mk systems: USE CRI_IEEE_DEFINITIONS * On UNICOS, UNICOS/mk, and IRIX systems: USE FTN_IEEE_DEFINITIONS The CRI_IEEE_DEFINITIONS module is obsolescent. It will be removed for the CF90 4.0 release. EXAMPLES See the example on DISABLE_IEEE_INTERRUPT(3I).
