Problem

This technote describes how to enable floating point in VxWorks application developed on Rational Rose® RealTime

Resolving The Problem

To enable floating point, set the environment variable ROSERT_TORNADO_OPTIONS to VX_FP_TASK.
When this is set the application checks if the processor supports floating point, and if so, it runs the target with the floating point option.
