Ah hello.<br />
<br />
I put the following code in a program I am working on and was surprised at the result:<br />
<br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;CString s ( _T(&quot;This is a long string&quot;) );<br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;int n = 1 + ( s.GetLength() ) ? 1 : 0;<br />
<br />
n is 1; why is it not 2?<br />
<br />
Interestingly, <br />
<br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;int n = 1 + ( s.GetLength() &gt;&nbsp;0 ) ? 0 : 1;<br />
<br />
results in n being 0.<br />
<br />
I might be having a moment of madness here, but what is going on??<br />
<br />
TIA

Ah hello.

I put the following code in a program I am working on and was surprised at the result:

	CString s ( _T("This is a long string") );
	int n = 1 + ( s.GetLength() ) ? 1 : 0;

n is 1; why is it not 2?

Interestingly, 

	int n = 1 + ( s.GetLength() > 0 ) ? 0 : 1;

results in n being 0.

I might be having a moment of madness here, but what is going on??

TIA

C++ is an intermediate-level general-purpose programming language, not to be confused with C or C#. It was developed as a set of extensions to the C programming language to improve type-safety and add support for automatic resource management, object-orientation, generic programming, and exception handling, among other features.
