[RESOLVED] Why are VB6 IF-expressions so inefficient?

[dreammanor]

When the VB IF statement performs an "And" condition check, it needs to check (execute) each sub-condition expression before determining whether the condition is true. But in other languages, if the first sub-condition does not hold, the remaining condition judgment will not be executed. Why is the condition judgment of VB6 so inefficient?

Private Sub TestVBConditonExpression()
    
    If Condition_01() And Condition_02() And Condition_03() And Condition_04() Then
        MsgBox "Conditon succeeded !"
    Else
        MsgBox "Conditon failed !"
    End If
    
End Sub

Private Function Condition_01() As Boolean
    MsgBox "Condition 01 -- Failed"
End Function

Private Function Condition_02() As Boolean
    MsgBox "Condition 02 -- Failed"
End Function

Private Function Condition_03() As Boolean
    MsgBox "Condition 03 -- Failed"
End Function

Private Function Condition_04() As Boolean
    MsgBox "Condition 04 -- Failed"
End Function

Private Sub Form_Click()
    TestVBConditonExpression
End Sub
