Greater Sensitivity to Arithmetic Errors
Ingres 6.4 ignores a number of arithmetic error conditions (such as floating point overflow and divide-by-zero). Ingres correctly reports arithmetic errors on all platforms. If an application generates arithmetic exceptions when tested with Ingres, it is probable that the application had problems in Ingres 6.4 that were not reported. The application must be corrected.
