CREATEABLBINEXPR(3)						   ABL FUNCTIONS					       CREATEABLBINEXPR(3)

NAME

       createablbinexpr - creates a binary operator expression.

ORIGIN

       This  software  belongs	to  the  ALLIANCE CAD SYSTEM developed by the ASIM team at LIP6 laboratory of Universite Pierre et Marie CURIE, in
       Paris, France.

       Web : http://asim.lip6.fr/recherche/alliance/
       E-mail : alliance-users@asim.lip6.fr

SYNOPSYS

       #include "abl101.h"
       chain_list *createablbinexpr( Oper, Expr1, Expr2 )
	 long	     Oper;
	 chain_list *Expr1;
	 chain_list *Expr2;

PARAMETERS

       Oper		   The operator number.

       Expr1		   The first expression.

       Expr2		   The second expression.

DESCRIPTION

       createablbinexpr creates the binary operator expression Expr1 Operator Expr2.  If the operator of Expr1	and/or	Expr2,	and  Operator  are
       identicals  createablbinexpr merges eventually the sub-expressions.  The expression pointers Expr1 and Expr2 MUSTN'T be used after the call
       to this function.

RETURN VALUE

       createablbinexpr returns a pointer to the new operator expression.

ERRORS

       "ablcreate: bad operator xx !",
	      Operator must be defined and must be a binary operator.

EXAMPLE

       #include "abl101.h"
	  chain_list *ExprA;
	  chain_list *ExprB;
	  chain_list *ExprAorB;
	  ExprA = createablatom( "a" );
	  ExprB = createablatom( "b" );
	  ExprAorB  = createablbinexpr( ABL_OR, ExprA, ExprB );
