Article
10/13/2021

Creates a condition node that is a logical conjunction (AND) or disjunction (OR) of a collection of subconditions.

Syntax

HRESULT MakeAndOr(
  [in]          CONDITION_TYPE ct,
  [in]          IEnumUnknown   *peuSubs,
  [in]          BOOL           fSimplify,
  [out, retval] ICondition     **ppcResult
);

Parameters

[in] ct

Type: CONDITION_TYPE

The CONDITION_TYPE of the condition node. The CONDITION_TYPE must be either CT_AND_CONDITION or CT_OR_CONDITION.

[in] peuSubs

Type: IEnumUnknown*

A pointer to an enumeration of ICondition objects, or NULL for an empty enumeration.

[in] fSimplify

Type: BOOL

TRUE to logically simplify the result, if possible; then the result will not necessarily to be of the specified kind. FALSE if the result should have exactly the prescribed structure.

An application that plans to execute a query based on the condition tree would typically benefit from setting this parameter to TRUE.

[out, retval] ppcResult

Type: ICondition**

Receives the address of a pointer to the new ICondition node.

Return value

Type: HRESULT

If this method succeeds, it returns S_OK. Otherwise, it returns an HRESULT error code.

Remarks

There are no special condition trees for TRUE and FALSE. However, a condition tree consisting of an AND node with no subconditions is always TRUE, and a condition tree consisting of an OR node with no subconditions is always FALSE.
