FPU Exception Synchronization?

436 Views

WhenI choose to unmask certain floating point exceptions,how can I get the Intel C++ Compiler to generate code which properly synchronizes FPU exceptions as described in Intel's FPU documentation?

The FPU documentation seems to go to great lengths to discuss Floating PointException Synchronization, but I have not been able to figure out how to get the C++ Compiler to generate properly 'synchronized' code for me.

What canthe Intel C++ Compiler do for me when it comes to synchronizing floating point instructions to ensure I can recover from FPUexceptions I've chosen to unmask? Thanks in advance for any help here.
