Hello ,

just a quick question , is the operator && short-circuited in sphere ?

what do you mean by short circuited

**darksun84** · 04-03-2012 11:40 PM

Like

a = 0
b = 1
if (a != 0 && b ==1 )

If the && operator is short circuited ,the second operation (b==1 ) doesn't get evaluated because the first operation is false .
Instead , if the && operator is not short circuited , the second operation will be anyway executed even if it's useless to evaluate it .

i think it is not, im tested it like this:

Code:

[function short_bla]

ref1=06f82 //uid of a character

if ((<ref1.isitem>) && (<ref1.type> = t_weapon_fence)) //this line gives error, this means second statement is controlled even first one is false

endif

It is not.

Code:

[function fTest]

local.testing = 0

if ( <local.testing> && <f_test> )

serv.log yay!

endif

[function f_test]

serv.log we're firing this anyway

return 1

Code:

12:06:(sphere_test.scp,19)we're firing this anyway

Got to admit something:
1. I forgot to add < > to f_test
2. Instead of return 1, I used return true.
3. Probably, this is because I got used to C++ Tongue
