Error: expected expression before return

[Itzhack Goldberg]

Hi,

Thanks for  the quick and accurate answer.

However I wonder about how gcc/gdb handles compound statements like:
((rtrn1=open("/tmp/file1",O_RDONLY))) &&
((rtrn2=open("/tmp/file2",O_WRONLY))) ...
What I see is, that the two expressions are treated as one statement when I
try to "step" through the code with gdb...

Is there a way/flag I could introduce so that I could indeed step through
the statement, one expression at the time ?

Thanks in advance,
- Itzhack

    return ( 1 == 1) ? 0 : 1;
}

This is C, not Perl :-)
