    Now I have to restructure some performance critical code entirely because of the lack "break" statement. I'm angry at their lack of effort.

    You could be starting a trend, here: Whoever designed AnnoyingProduct should be forced to use it I can think of several values for AnnoyingProduct, without even putting my mind to it

      It's a good principle, IMO. :-D

          If it had a break statement, it would probably follow C++ and overload it. :mad: But surely it has...you know...goto. :laugh:

          You cannot overload the break statement in C++.

                If does have goto, and i'm seriously considering it at this point

                Do it. break is just a thinly-disguised goto anyway. :) Here's an article from 2007 with some alternatives for the unsupported features: CodeDom Assistant[^]

                  What I meant was that C++ overloads break itself, although I suppose this can be debated. But it's annoying not to be able to exit a loop using break when inside a switch statement that's embedded within that loop.

                      OK, now I got it. I think I've used the break statement millions times without ever considering its 'double' nature (I mean, I knew and eccepted it blindly)! :) Thank you for the explanation.

                          Well, when there's a reason, and it's thought out properly, there's nothing wrong with a goto.

                          "'Do what thou wilt...' is to bid Stars to shine, Vines to bear grapes, Water to seek its level; man is the only being in Nature that has striven to set himself at odds with himself." —Aleister Crowley

                          Just document what the goto is in there for. Even Dykstra said goto has a place.
