Just wondering. There's another thread about goto and labels
running as well. If they vote for something like:LABEL:while (cond) {
}
Wouldn't this add another technical diffuculty with using ':' as a
namespace seporator?Fortunately this is another new feature so there's no old
code to break.
It's simply a matter of giving namespace:class precedence
over label:expr.Though yes, preventing that duality of meaning is a good thing.
That's one reason I suggested possible alternatives such as:
while LABEL (cond) {
or
while (cond) LABEL {
I've no particular preference for any one variation -- whatever parses
easiest!
Cheers!
