Draft C bindings for IEEE 754-2008 part 4 now available

2014-01-04 Thread Joseph S. Myers
FYI: a draft set of C bindings for additional floating-point functions 
from IEEE 754-2008 are now available (draft TS 18661-4):

http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n1785.pdf

This is in addition to the previous three draft parts of bindings to IEEE 
754-2008, part 1 (binary arithmetic), part 2 (decimal arithmetic) and part 
3 (interchange and extended types).  Part 5 (supplementary attributes, 
e.g. alternate exception handling) is not yet available.

http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n1778.pdf (part 1)
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n1781.pdf (part 2)
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n1784.pdf (part 3)

Any issues with these draft bindings would best be reported directly to 
WG14 (sc22w...@open-std.org).  Parts 1 and 2 are in ballot, parts 3 and 4 
are at earlier stages of development.
