Sorry for the newbie C++ coder question, but wouldn't it be wrong to use a comparison on a return statement like was suggested? Is the !! an operator? I haven't seen it before. From this thread I'm guessing that it converts any >0 value to a 1 and any <0 value to 0, making the return perform an assignment before returning? Just a guess. I know this is a little OT I guess, so feel free to answer me off-list if you know. Thanks! =)

Oh yes, it could be a good explanation. But, why wouldn't it be : return (gEngfuncs.GetPlayerUniqueID( iPlayer, playerID ) != 0); ? It's much more concise... And it doesn't look as a mistake :p - Cortex : HL Albator coder and mapper ( www.hlalbator.fr.st ) - email : [EMAIL PROTECTED] & ICQ : 71548738 David Flor <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> nous disait : > Don't know if it's meant to be that way, but the "!!" convention > ensures that the value is ALWAYS either a one or a zero. > __________________________________________________________ This mail has been scanned for all known viruses by UUNET delivered through the MessageLabs Virus Control Centre. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
