[RESOLVED]return(*var=0,NULL);

[Phenix]

I am trying to compile code on MinGW for Mac and now I notice the code has a construct I've never seen, which compiled on VC++ 6.0 and VC++ Express.

SomeStruct* CMyClass::MyMethod(const char *symbol,const int period,const time_t lasttime,int *count)

{

if(Something==NULL) return(*count=0,NULL);

return Something(m_somevar,symbol,period,lasttime,count);

}

count is not a member of SomeStruct, so I assume it is just setting the value count points to equal to 0, then returning NULL.

So does this do the same thing:

if(Something==NULL) {
*count=0;
return(NULL);
}
return Something(m_somevar,symbol,period,lasttime,count);

Or is there a switch I can pass to MinGW to let it accept the original return construct?
