I'm curious about the fate of the changed floating point evaluation constraints which were a part of some of the intermediate dpANSI "C" documents; the idea being that the programmer could be assured of a fixed evaluation order without requiring the use of temps. The current doc's I have seem to no longer mention this (or the synchronization aspect of unary '+')? On an unrelated front: Is it conforming practice to cast the value returned from a function call to void when the function returns a struct or union? Granted that a nice compiler will allow this, I can't find anything explicit about it in the std... Does any system have public ftp access to an archive of this group (for offline grepping about these sorts of questions)? Thanks-in-advance, Kirk Bailey (bailey@mist.cs.orst.edu)
