Re: Re: Make try/catch brackets optinal

I see no reason to add another context in which braces could >> be omitted. Agree, no reason to mess with try/catch at all. However for if there's a small number of cases where brace-less block if ok, e.g. usually I could write something like: foreach($arr as $item) { if(!good($item)) continue; do_stuff($item); } and it's not that bad to have it brace-less. However anything more than one-term continue or return or break something like that and you want braces. Of course, this does not apply to try/catch since nobody does just "return" inside try-catch. In any case, I don't see any reason to mess with the braces. There's no problem we'd be solving and it will only bring trouble and more messy code. -- Stanislav Malyshev, Software Architect SugarCRM: http://www.sugarcrm.com/ (408)454-6900 ext. 227
