Re: CEE4SIFAC Math API

[zoght@xxxxxxxxxx]

Blair,

 There was a typo in the pre v4r3 documentation of System API Reference
Manual.

The correct max is 12 for 4 byte int and 20 for 8 byte int.

There is one API for each type of int:
---------------------------
_INT4:   void CEE4SIFAC(_INT4 * val, _INT4 * result, _FEEDBACK * fc);  /*
max 12 */
_INT8:   void CEE4SJFAC(_INT4 * val, _INT8 * result, _FEEDBACK * fc); /*
max 20 */


The prototypes are in lemath.h, the types in letype.h.
leawi.h includes both above files.

Let me know if you need more help and Sorry about the typo.
Cheers.

Hi, Joe.

Thanks for looking at this.  Is this some known problem?  I haven't messed
with it personally, but one of the guys out on the MIDRANGE-L list ran into
this.

Thanks again.

Folks:

The API reference book says I can use this API upto number 30.  The
stuff starts giving me wrong answer from 13 .  Did they mean 13 not 30?
Has anybody used this API?
