Bug ID: 118191 Summary: missing option to read __float128 from command line argument or string Product: gcc Version: unknown Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: newbie-02 at gmx dot de Target Milestone: --- hello @ all, hope me wrong, but all search failed ... How to write code that reads a __float128 value from command line argument or string? In 'vanilla-c, not cpp, c++ or the like. Tried different strtoxx and sscanxx, best strtold, but that castrates to ~20 digit precision. Anybody an idea? P.S. don't need that for 'real work', but want to compare performance of all available datatypes, and for that need an option to set different values.
