How To Clear Exception Mask

[Food 4 Thought]

When creating an exception mask for a file, should an exception throw during a file operation, I can reset the state bits of the actual file using ios::clear().

Though after doing so, will the exception mask still throw an exception, thinking that the specified error state flags are still set to true? If so, how can I reset the exception mask so that it is ready to throw more exceptions should the appropriate situations arise in the future?

The error is cleared. The next stream operation will set the error if necessary.

[Food 4 Thought]

Like I said, I'm aware that ios::clear() clears the state bits of the file. My question is regarding the exception mask for the relative object.

Nothing in the documentation for ios::exceptions does it say that the exception mask will/will not continue to throw exceptions after one of the specified error state flags go off.
My question is:
Should the exception mask of throw an exception, and the error flags of the relative file be reset through the use of ios::clear(), will the exception mask still throw exceptions? If so, is there a way to reset it?
