Subject: [Ada] Document rounding mode assumed for dynamic floating-point computations
Date: Fri, 1 Oct 2021 06:14:46 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211001061446.GA3059425@adacore.com> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 285 bytes --]
It is only documented for static computations currently.
Tested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, committed on trunk
gcc/ada/
* doc/gnat_rm/implementation_defined_characteristics.rst: Document
the rounding mode assumed for dynamic computations as per 3.5.7(16).
* gnat_rm.texi: Regenerate.
