Where Is IntelliSense For "goto" statements?

Hey guys, give it a break;
Why not continue?
It's time for a new sig. Seriously.

I'll do a feasibily first, but I'll keep you in the loop on changes foreach sprint.

We probably need to switch things, at least I think that's the case.

I don't use goto statements to exit a loop. Why is Dave thumbing his nose about using "goto"? If you decompile the .Net Framework, their developers still use "goto" statements. By the way, my original question has yet to be answered.

It would be fun if we do drag this thing for a while.

In the event that we can't, we'd better delegate someone to release the thread.

a goto in some decompilation output does not prove there was a goto in the original source; it could be the decompiler did not recognize the original (looping) construct. In the end, every construct that changes the program flow is bound to get translated in an elementary jump/goto/branch/call/return instruction. :)

I don't use the: "goto" statement very often but I have started using it more frequently. Does anyone know why Visual Studio does not implement IntelliSense for goto statements? For example: // VS code editor does not show IntelliSense with //available "Label_" when entering this goto statement if (condition == true) goto Label_ExitCode; //... Label_ExitCode: //...

What language?

We could always repeat until the next topic comes up.

C# Have you noticed that no one has even remotely answered the original question?

Good for the goose, good for the gander. There are instances where nothing else works, but they tend to be when you are implementing threads (not using them, implementing them). And when you are using VB. Wait, you are a VB programmer, why do you want to get rid of the only errorarrow in your quiver? Damn, that was a good line. :sigh: Except I wrote it after I read Dave Kreskowiak's signature, not yours, so it doesn't apply here. Well, I hope someone else can re-use it later. :)
Opacity, the new Transparency.

Probably so newbies will not use it until they get to the point of understanding it's consequences. I took the lemonade in the 90s that discredited that particular set of structures and have not used a goto in more that 12 years. I do not regret the decision!

I was waiting for someone else to make a serious answer. I suspect it's because a label doesn't exist like a function or variable does. They don't allocate memory. Are they in the name/symbol table (or whatever)?

It's more a language concern; modern languages have more robust sets of flow control constructs and so don't require it. I still have to use it DCL.

Absolutely, I can't understand why it has not been, what's that word, deprecated. For the life of me I can't think of a reason for it to be there, I wonder if GoSub is still in there as well.

Somewhere in this thread, it has been assumed that I'm a VB guy. I write C#, read C#, eat C#. (Okay, maybe not that die hard) :) I've been trying to dig up a good example of me using the "goto" statement. However, in most cases, I would probably get a pile of contradictory replys. I guess I should take the nearest exit on this "goto" road. :laugh:
