NAME
_MathTransBase auto-open
SYNOPSIS
FUNCTION
If the _MathTransBase base variable is referenced (i.e. extern) but
not declared then _MathTransBase will be automatically declared in
the mathlib module of auto.lib. Additionally, auto.lib adds
routines to the autoinit and autoexit sequences called by c.a that
automatically opens "mathtrans.library" before _main and closes it after
_exit.
If the auto-open fails the program will be aborted before _main is
ever called.
The autoexit routine that closes the library first checks to see if
the base variable is NULL and skips trying to close the library if
so.
NOTE
DICE uses the autoinit feature to automatically open and close
floating point libraries that are indirectly referenced by
fp operations.
EXAMPLE
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <math.h>
main()
{
float f;
f = flog(10.0);
}
