Need help with boolean type condition
⚓ Rust 📅 2025-07-08 👤 surdeus 👁️ 16I found some app working unexpectedly when I'm extending condition with simply add | self.write_json_to_file | self.write_bin_to_file part like:
impl StatisticsConfig {
pub fn active(&self) -> bool {
(self.interval != 0) & (self.print_to_stdout | self.write_html_to_file | self.write_json_to_file | self.write_bin_to_file)
}
}
On this example, all values (self.print_to_stdout | self.write_html_to_file | self.write_json_to_file | self.write_bin_to_file) are boolean.
I would prefer to use logical operators || but not sure, why does maintainer use bitwise condition, maybe for performance reasons.
