+1 for goto
-1 for jump

My vote is +1 for goto, just because that largely describes what it does and how it is used. I don't mind if it winds up being called jump, I just think it will be easier for people to find it when they need it if it is called 'goto'. 'goto' also comes with all the usual anti-goto propaganda that will help discourage people that shouldn't be using it from using it. --Wez.

The last question: What do you thin about Andi's solution about using "jump" instead of "goto"? It may make sense, because it is not a full analog of C's goto statement. It is a limited "goto". It allows jump back and forward, but not INTO loops and switch statements. Thanks. Dmitry. -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
