public:
System::Collections::BitArray ^ Or(System::Collections::BitArray ^ value);
public System.Collections.BitArray Or (System.Collections.BitArray value);
member this.Or : System.Collections.BitArray -> System.Collections.BitArray
Public Function Or (value As BitArray) As BitArray
Parameters
- value
- BitArray
The array with which to perform the bitwise OR operation.
Returns
An array containing the result of the bitwise OR operation, which is a reference to the current BitArray object.
Exceptions
value
is null
.
value
and the current BitArray do not have the same number of elements.
Examples
The following code example shows how to perform the OR operation between two BitArray objects.
using namespace System;
using namespace System::Collections;
void PrintValues( IEnumerable^ myList, int myWidth );
int main()
{
// Creates and initializes two BitArrays of the same size.
BitArray^ myBA1 = gcnew BitArray( 4 );
BitArray^ myBA2 = gcnew BitArray( 4 );
myBA1[ 0 ] = false;
myBA1[ 1 ] = false;
myBA1[ 2 ] = true;
myBA1[ 3 ] = true;
myBA2[ 0 ] = false;
myBA2[ 1 ] = true;
myBA2[ 2 ] = false;
myBA2[ 3 ] = true;
// Performs a bitwise OR operation between BitArray instances of the same size.

Remarks
The bitwise OR operation returns true
if one or both operands are true
, and returns false
if both operands are false
.
This method is an O(n)
operation, where n
is Count.
