Re: Method should return list<>, instead returns BOOL, no error. Why not?

Greetings!

I have a class with a method that is declared to return a std::list<>
object, but instead it returns a BOOL value. However, no compiler
error is thrown. Why not?

This makes me think that there's some implicit conversion between a
long and a list<>, but that makes no sense to me.

Code below.

=========== TagNamer.h ===============

#include "opc_defs.h"
#include "ComString.h"

#include <list>
#include "IniEx.h"

typedef std::list<CCOMString> taglist;
typedef std::list<CCOMString>::iterator tag_iter;

class _OPC_EXPORT CTagNamer
{
public:
    CTagNamer();
    virtual ~CTagNamer();

// void ReadIniFile();
    taglist GetTagList(CCOMString tagFileName);

private:
    CIniEx m_iniEx;
    CCOMString GetTagID(int baseNumber, const CCOMString& tagName);

    CCOMString m_baseTemplate;
    CCOMString m_globalTemplate;
    CCOMString m_separator;

};

======== TagNamer.cpp ============

taglist CTagNamer::GetTagList(CCOMString tagFileName)
{
    BOOL result;
    return result;
}
