This isn't a change from C++. It works the same way for both operators. Doesn't it? Now I'm going to have to read up on it, dammit!

You have to! Otherwise you may end up with some mess if updating C/C++ to C# (what I'm doing just now)...

Though Nish's and OG's examples will work, I think it is symantically better to do this:
bool more = ProcessFlyouts();
bool foo = ProcessCarrierAnimations();
more = more || foo;Less terse code (normally bad) - but explicit in calling

The operands of a logical || shall be primary expressionsThe example you gave is the very reason for the above two rules.

Nah! As long as it compiles...

Yeah! It compiles. After then you can rub your head to find where the bug is!

Programming Quiz of the day. I just wrote this code (C#), which did something very unexpected. What was it that it unexpectedly did?
bool more = ProcessFlyouts(); more = more || ProcessCarrierAnimations();How would you change it to "do the right thing?" Marc
How about:
more &= ProcessCarrierAnimations();
The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer.

That could make setting a breakpoint on the second call difficult. :shrug:

No big deal to change if necessary. :shrug: But I actually find it easier to read on one line.

There's a risk that
ProcessCarrierAnimations()may never be invoked, so the right thing (IMHO) would be to do something like this:bool processFlyouts = ProcessFlyouts();
bool processCarrierAnimations = ProcessCarrierAnimations();
bool more = processFlyouts || processCarrierAnimations;/ravi

Yes indeed. Or use the bitwise operator. Marc

Just to be contrary:
bool more = false;
if (ProcessFlyouts()) more = true;
if (ProcessCarrierAnimations()) more = true;Software Zen:

Yuck. One of my least favorite things when reading someone else's C/C++ code is when they mix logical and bit-wise operators in an expression. In this case, using a bit-wise operator on
boolvalues just seems wrong.Software Zen:
