#46158 [NEW]: Break out of compound blocks.

From: kok at nachon dot nl Operating system: Irrelevant PHP version: 5.2.6 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: Break out of compound blocks. Description: ------------ I read in Bug #29287 about breaking out of loops and was wondering if anyone considered breaking out of a generic compound block. This would satisfy the need for error handling without goto. Example: function connect() { { //start compound block if (!mysql_connect('host', 'user', 'pass)) break; //break out if (!mysql_select_db('database')) break; //break out return; } $code = mysql_errno(); $msg = mysql_error(); throw new Exception($msg, $code); } -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=46158&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46158&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46158&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46158&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46158&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46158&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46158&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46158&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46158&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46158&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46158&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46158&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46158&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46158&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46158&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46158&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46158&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46158&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46158&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46158&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46158&r=mysqlcfg
