IUIAutomation::CreateOrCondition method (uiautomationclient.h)

Article
02/22/2024

Creates a combination of two conditions where a match exists if either of the conditions is true.

Syntax

HRESULT CreateOrCondition(
  [in]          IUIAutomationCondition *condition1,
  [in]          IUIAutomationCondition *condition2,
  [out, retval] IUIAutomationCondition **newCondition
);

Parameters

[in] condition1

Type: IUIAutomationCondition*

A pointer to the first condition.

[in] condition2

Type: IUIAutomationCondition*

A pointer to the second condition.

[out, retval] newCondition

Type: IUIAutomationCondition**

Receives a pointer to the combined condition.

Return value

Type: HRESULT

If this method succeeds, it returns S_OK. Otherwise, it returns an HRESULT error code.

Remarks

The CreateOrCondition method calls AddRef on the condition1 and condition2 pointers. This means you can call Release on those two pointers after the call to CreateOrCondition returns without invalidating the pointer returned from CreateOrCondition. When you call Release on the pointer returned from CreateOrCondition, UI Automation calls Release on the condition1 and condition2 pointers.
