NAME

set_eval_limit() - set the maximum evaluation cost

SYNOPSIS

int set_eval_limit( int );

DESCRIPTION

set_eval_limit(), with a nonzero argument, sets the maximum evaluation
cost that is allowed for any one thread before a runtime error occurs.
With a zero argument, it sets the current evaluation counter to zero,
and the maximum cost is returned. set_eval_limit(-1) returns the
remaining evaluation cost.
