Problems with assignment operator being used inside conditionals (nVidia driver)

[canuckle]

The following condition always evaluates to true when using the nVidia drivers:

bool b;
if ((b = true) == false ||
    (b = false) == true)
{
   ...
}

Has anyone else seen this?

Yes. You can rewrite it as this and it will work:

bool b;
if ((b = true) == false)
{
…
}
else if ((b = false) == true)
{
…
}

Relic:

Yeah, I noticed. My point is that the driver apparently has problems with conditionals that contain two assignments to the same variable.

I figured that out Unfortunately the solution then is to not do it this way until it’s fixed.
