Handles math errors.

Syntax

  
      int _matherr(  
   struct _exception *except   
);

Parameters

except
Pointer to the structure containing error information.

Return Value

_matherr returns 0 to indicate an error or a nonzero value to indicate success. If _matherr returns 0, an error message can be displayed and errno is set to an appropriate error value. If _matherr returns a nonzero value, no error message is displayed and errno remains unchanged.

For more information about return codes, see _doserrno, errno, _sys_errlist, and _sys_nerr.

Remarks

The _matherr function processes errors generated by the floating-point functions of the math library. These functions call _matherr when an error is detected.

For special error handling, you can provide a different definition of _matherr. If you use the dynamically linked version of the C run-time library (Msvcr90.dll), you can replace the default _matherr routine in a client executable with a user-defined version. However, you cannot replace the default _matherr routine in a DLL client of Msvcr90.dll.

When an error occurs in a math routine, _matherr is called with a pointer to an _exception type structure (defined in Math.h) as an argument. The _exception structure contains the following elements.

int type
Exception type.

char *name
Name of the function where error occurred.

double arg1, arg2
First and second (if any) arguments to the function.

double retval
Value to be returned by the function.

The type specifies the type of math error. It is one of the following values, defined in Math.h.

_DOMAIN
Argument domain error.

_SING
Argument singularity.

_OVERFLOW
Overflow range error.

_PLOSS
Partial loss of significance.

_TLOSS
Total loss of significance.

_UNDERFLOW
The result is too small to be represented. (This condition is not currently supported.)

The structure member name is a pointer to a null-terminated string containing the name of the function that caused the error. The structure members arg1 and arg2 specify the values that caused the error. (If only one argument is given, it is stored in arg1.)

The default return value for the given error is retval. If you change the return value, it must specify whether an error actually occurred.

Example

// crt_matherr.c  
/* illustrates writing an error routine for math   
 * functions. The error function must be:  
 *      _matherr  
 */  
  
#include <math.h>  
#include <string.h>  
#include <stdio.h>  
  
int main()  
{  
    /* Do several math operations that cause errors. The _matherr  
     * routine handles _DOMAIN errors, but lets the system handle  
     * other errors normally.  
     */  
    printf( "log( -2.0 ) = %e\n", log( -2.0 ) );  
    printf( "log10( -5.0 ) = %e\n", log10( -5.0 ) );  
    printf( "log( 0.0 ) = %e\n", log( 0.0 ) );  
}  
  
/* Handle several math errors caused by passing a negative argument  
 * to log or log10 (_DOMAIN errors). When this happens, _matherr  
 * returns the natural or base-10 logarithm of the absolute value  
 * of the argument and suppresses the usual error message.  
 */  
int _matherr( struct _exception *except )  
{  
    /* Handle _DOMAIN errors for log or log10. */  
    if( except->type == _DOMAIN )  
    {  
        if( strcmp( except->name, "log" ) == 0 )  
        {  
            except->retval = log( -(except->arg1) );  
            printf( "Special: using absolute value: %s: _DOMAIN "  
                     "error\n", except->name );  
            return 1;  
        }  
        else if( strcmp( except->name, "log10" ) == 0 )  
        {  
            except->retval = log10( -(except->arg1) );  
            printf( "Special: using absolute value: %s: _DOMAIN "  
                     "error\n", except->name );  
            return 1;  
        }  
    }  
    printf( "Normal: " );  
    return 0;    /* Else use the default actions */  
}

Output

Special: using absolute value: log: _DOMAIN error  
log( -2.0 ) = 6.931472e-001  
Special: using absolute value: log10: _DOMAIN error  
log10( -5.0 ) = 6.989700e-001  
Normal: log( 0.0 ) = -1.#INF00e+000
