Any plans regarding the implementation of IEEE-754-2008r into FPC?
« on: December 24, 2018, 08:33:05 pm »
Hi to all,

I have not yet found any information regarding the implementation of  IEEE-754-2008r to FPC compiler.  :(

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_754-2008_revision

Any information will be really appreciated in order to keep on FPC projects.

Thanking you, in advance...
