Method chaining question

Submitted by VonQ on Mon, 05/04/2009 - 19:02.

In this example:

object.method1().method2().method3();

What gets evaluated first? Does method 2 use what method 1 returned first for its calculation, or does method 3 return what method 2 returns for its calculation and then evaluate the first method based on what that returned?

If the question is not clear I will clarify.

Thanks, Von
