switch case
« on: October 06, 2009, 01:06:33 PM »
Hi,

please see this code:

Code: [Select]
//
#include <stdio.h>

//
int main(void)
{
    //
    int i;

//
for ( i = 0; i < 10; i++ )
{
switch ( i )
{
case 0:
case 1:
case 2:
case 5:
printf("%d is in case!\n", i);
break;

default:
printf("%d is NOT in case!\n", i);
break;
}
}

return 0;
}

Why I get this output ?

Quote
0 is in case!
1 is in case!
2 is in case!
3 is in case!
4 is in case!
5 is in case!
6 is NOT in case!
7 is NOT in case!
8 is NOT in case!
9 is NOT in case!

Why 3, 4 is "in case" ?

Thanks,
Alessio.

In C you need a break in each case unless you want fall-through.

    case 0:
      break;

EDIT: sorry I see what you are saying - the answer is I don't know. I've checked with previous versions of PellesC and get the same result.

EDIT1:
It would appear that PellesC is is not generating the right code. I've checked with two other compilers which both give the result you expect.

Thank you.
Should this topic moved to bug reports ?
