My point is that there are already 32 definitions of TRUE/FALSE - adding a 33rd doesn't seem like a good thing to do. I view a 33rd identical definition as polluting the code more than 1 common definition that most people won't generally use. Its not my decision, but I assume the powers that be would recommend one of: - Not using TRUE/FALSE since using non-zero values and 0 are widely accepted as TRUE/FALSE. I think using TRUE/FALSE makes the code harder to understand and more open to bugs. Eg for other code that interacts with your code, or someone reviewing your code, they either have to either assume you defined TRUE as 1, FALSE as 0, or import your definitions. Anyway, I view their use as another layer of unnecessary abstraction with very little benefit. - Consolidating the definition of TRUE/FALSE. Wolfgang, do you have a preference about how TRUE/FALSE are generally used/defined?
