Operator > (Greater Than)
Compares an expression greater than another expression
Declare Operator > ( ByRef lhs As Byte, ByRef rhs As Byte ) As Integer
Declare Operator > ( ByRef lhs As UByte, ByRef rhs As UByte ) As Integer
Declare Operator > ( ByRef lhs As Short, ByRef rhs As Short ) As Integer
Declare Operator > ( ByRef lhs As UShort, ByRef rhs As UShort ) As Integer
Declare Operator > ( ByRef lhs As Integer, ByRef rhs As Integer ) As Integer
Declare Operator > ( ByRef lhs As UInteger, ByRef rhs As UInteger ) As Integer
Declare Operator > ( ByRef lhs As LongInt, ByRef rhs As LongInt ) As Integer
Declare Operator > ( ByRef lhs As ULongInt, ByRef rhs As ULongInt ) As Integer
Declare Operator > ( ByRef lhs As String, ByRef rhs As String ) As Integer
Declare Operator > ( ByRef lhs As ZString, ByRef rhs As ZString ) As Integer
Declare Operator > ( ByRef lhs As WString, ByRef rhs As WString ) As Integer
Declare Operator > ( ByRef lhs As T, ByRef rhs As T ) As Integer
result = lhs > rhs
lhs
Returns negative one (-1) if the left-hand side expression is greater than the right-hand side expression, or zero (0) if less than or equal.
Operator > (Greater than) is a binary operator that compares an expression greater than another expression and returns the result - a boolean value in the form of an Integer: negative one (-1) for true and zero (0) for false. The arguments are not modified in any way.
This operator can be overloaded to accept user-defined types as well.
Operator <= (Less than or equal) is complement to Operator > (Greater than), and is functionally identical when combined with Operator Not (Bit-wise Complement).

Usage
result = lhs > rhs
Parameters
lhs
The left-hand side expression to compare to.
rhsThe right-hand side expression to compare to.
TAny pointer type.
Return Value
Returns negative one (-1) if the left-hand side expression is greater than the right-hand side expression, or zero (0) if less than or equal.
Description
Operator > (Greater than) is a binary operator that compares an expression greater than another expression and returns the result - a boolean value in the form of an Integer: negative one (-1) for true and zero (0) for false. The arguments are not modified in any way.
This operator can be overloaded to accept user-defined types as well.
Example
Operator <= (Less than or equal) is complement to Operator > (Greater than), and is functionally identical when combined with Operator Not (Bit-wise Complement).
If (420 > 69) Then Print "(420 > 69) is true."
If Not (420 <= 69) Then Print "not (420 <= 69) is true."
If Not (420 <= 69) Then Print "not (420 <= 69) is true."
Dialect Differences
- In the -lang qb dialect, this operator cannot be overloaded.
