    case 1:

<snip> Personally, I find that the next "case *:" tells me where the previous block ended or the closing brace. I prefer switch (foo) {

    case 1:
        action1;
        break;
    case 2:
        action2;
        break;

} This means its easier to see the list of case conditions, and I don't need to mentally block out the "break;"'s Still, its very trivial, I think we shouldn't force the user either way on this point, except to that it should be one or the other. - Davey
