Question

So I have something like

bSuccess = true;

bSuccess = bSuccess && statement1();
bSuccess = bSuccess && statement2();
bSuccess = bSuccess && statement3();
...

Is there a better or more idiomatic way to write this?

Answer 1

You could chain it all together:

bSuccess = statement1() && statement2() && statement3();

This is “idiomatic”, however it isn’t completely clear whether this type of code is clear. You are relying on the side-effects of each function call, so at the very least these should be well documented.
