How it works?

[Guest]

If 1 = 1 Or Or Or Or Or Or Or Or Or 2 = 2 Then MsgBox(0,"","Working!!")

It really works .. I think it's a bug because it should not work .. but maybe I'm wrong

?

i get

error: syntax error

If 1 = 1 Or Or
~~~~~~~~~~~~^

[Guest]

this is AU3Check output..

but the script still working (you see the msgbox) even if there is syntax error

[Palestinian]

error: syntax error
If 1 = 1 Or Or
~~~~~~~~~~~~^

 

That error prevents the script from running, how is it working for you?

gil900 is correct, you are posting Au3Check output. Try:

#AutoIt3Wrapper_Run_Au3Check=n
If 1 = 1 Or Or Or Or Or Or Or Or Or 2 = 2 Then MsgBox(0,"","Working!!")

The reason it works, is because OR will only evaluate the second expression if the first evaluates to false. For example:

If True Or ConsoleWrite("1" & @LF) Then ConsoleWrite("2" & @LF)

Will only print "2", the "1" won't be printed unless you change True to False.

Same goes for AND. The second expression is not evaluated unless the first is True.

now yes.

Good explanation 

P.S,

is there a way to set #AutoIt3Wrapper_Run_Au3Check=n permanent in SciTE?

thanks

To show that expression really is error if first condition is not met...

#AutoIt3Wrapper_Run_Au3Check=n

If 1 = 0 Or Or Or Or Or Or Or Or Or 2 = 2 Then MsgBox(0,"","Working!!")

Not that I know of.

You could rename Au3Check.exe to Au3Check_Old.exe and compile a blank script to Au3Check.exe. Then it would still try to run but would always show no errors.

thanks Matt, ingenious suggestion appreciated
