Order of Evaluation (plus ?'s)

[Kirk Bailey]

I'm curious about the fate of the changed floating point evaluation
constraints which were a part of some of the intermediate dpANSI "C" documents;
the idea being that the programmer could be assured of a fixed evaluation
order without requiring the use of temps.  The current doc's I have seem to
no longer mention this (or the synchronization aspect of unary '+')?

On an unrelated front:  Is it conforming practice to cast the value returned
from a function call to void when the function returns a struct or union?
Granted that a nice compiler will allow this, I can't find anything explicit
about it in the std...

Does any system have public ftp access to an archive of this group (for offline
grepping about these sorts of questions)?

	Thanks-in-advance,
