								<p><a name="index-_0040code_007b_002eset-autoextend_007d-1219"></a><a name="index-_0040code_007b_002eset-noautoextend_007d-1220"></a>By default, MIPS 16 instructions are automatically extended to 32 bits
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								when necessary.  The directive <code>.set noautoextend</code> will turn this
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								off.  When <code>.set noautoextend</code> is in effect, any 32 bit instruction
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								must be explicitly extended with the <code>.e</code> modifier (e.g.,
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<code>li.e $4,1000</code>).  The directive <code>.set autoextend</code> may be used
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								to once again automatically extend instructions when necessary.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								   <p>This directive is only meaningful when in MIPS 16 mode.  Traditional
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<span class="sc">mips</span> assemblers do not support this directive.
