Later patches toward the end of the series will replace this with something nicer. Currently in this patch series I pass a pointer to pointer for the transaction to _commit() but that is perhaps not optimal either. I will try and see how it would look if _commit would not free the transaction at all and the caller would always have to call ref_transaction_free() explicitely. I am thinking of something like this : t = ref_transaction_begin(); if ((!t || ref_transaction_update(t, ...)) || ref_transaction_commit(t, ...)) { ...something... } ref_transaction_free(t); > > You seem to have extra parentheses around the first || subexpression. > > You also don't need the parentheses around the && expression because && > binds more tightly than ||. > > But using "!(t = NULL)" in the middle of a conditional expression is > pretty obscure.
