Almost all configuration details are set up automatically by <code class="computeroutput"><span class="special">&lt;</span><span class="identifier">boost</span><span class="special">\</span><span class="identifier">math</span><span class="special">\</span><span class="identifier">tools</span><span class="special">\</span><span class="identifier">config</span><span class="special">.</span><span class="identifier">hpp</span><span class="special">&gt;</span></code>.

In normal use, only policy configuration macros are likely to be used. See
<a class="link" href="../policy/pol_ref.html" title="Policy Reference">policy reference</a>.

<p>
For reference, information on Boost.Math macros used internally are described
briefly below.

exceptions on MSVC. May get set to something like: <code class="computeroutput"> <span class="identifier">_control87</span><span class="special">(</span><span class="identifier">MCW_EM</span><span class="special">,</span><span class="identifier">MCW_EM</span><span class="special">)</span></code>.

of a function template to a function pointer requires explicit
template arguments to be provided on the function name.

<p>
Set if constants too large for a float, will cause "bad"

large value.

<code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">BOOST_MATH_STD_USING</span></code>
</p>
</td>
<td>
<p>
Provides <code class="computeroutput"><span class="keyword">using</span></code> statements
for many std:: (abs to sqrt) and boost::math (rounds, modf) functions.
This allows these functions to be called unqualified so that if
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument-dependent_name_lookup" target="_top">argument-dependent
Argument Dependent Lookup</a> fails to find a suitable overload,
then the std:: versions will also be considered.

<td>
<p>
<code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">BOOST_FPU_EXCEPTION_GUARD</span></code>
</p>
</td>
<td>
<p>
Used at the entrypoint to each special function to reset all FPU
exception flags prior to internal calculations, and then merge
the old and new exception flags on function exit. Used as a workaround
on platforms or hardware that behave strangely if any FPU exception
flags are set when calling standard library functions.
</p>
</td>

<tr>
<td>
<p>
<code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">BOOST_MATH_INSTRUMENT</span></code>
</p>
</td>
<td>
<p>
Define to output diagnostics for math functions. This is rather
'global' to Boost.Math and so coarse-grained that it will probably
produce copious output! (Especially because full precision values
are output). Designed primarily for internal use and development.
