pfm_inhibit_faults(3ncs)
Name
pfm_inhibit_faults − inhibit asynchronous faults
Syntax
#include <idl/c/base.h>
#include <idl/c/pfm.h>
void pfm_$inhibit_faults()
Description
The pfm_$inhibit_faults routine prevents asynchronous faults from being passed to the calling process. While faults are inhibited, the operating system holds at most one asynchronous fault. Consequently, a call to pfm_$inhibit_faults can result in the loss of some signals. It is good practice to inhibit faults only when absolutely necessary.
Note
This call has no effect on the processing of synchronous faults such as floating-point and overflow exceptions, access violations, and so on.
