<and>

<and> is a Logic component which checks to see whether all enclosed <boolean> references are true.

Attributes and Properties

The <and> component has no attributes or properties.


Example: <and> in a <boolean>

The <and> component functions as the boolean operator and or &, and checks to see whether all enclosed <boolean> references are true.


Example: <and> in an <award>

An <and> component is used to construct a compound boolean from three referenced <boolean> components within an <award>.


Example: An alternative to <and>

The word and may be typed directly within any component that takes a boolean expression, such as an <award>, a <when>, or a <boolean>. The text syntax must be used within a boolean expression inside an attribute’s specification (since components such as <and> are not permissible in attribute specification). Compare the syntax in the example above with that in the example with <and> in a <boolean>.
