Hi Clark
The expression inside the if statement has it's variables dereferenced
before evaluating and the non-variables are treated as constant
expressions. In this case, a resolves to "b", b resolves to "c", and c is
not a variable so it's treated as the constant expression "c". Thus
if(a STREQUAL b OR a STREQUAL c)
gets evaluated as
if( ("b" STREQUAL "c") OR ("b" STREQUAL "c") )
which is clearly false. Hope that helps.
- Chuck
