So, the second will only be evaluated if the first returns NO when BOOL someValue = [object returnsBool] || [anotherObject alsoReturnsBool]; whereas what you have is BOOL someValue = [object returnsBool] | [anotherObject alsoReturnsBool]; which is a bitwise OR of two YESes, essentially. -- Igor _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
