ccmode: Switch Statement Symbols
10.2.4 Switch Statement Symbols
-------------------------------
Switch statements have their own set of syntactic symbols. Here’s an
example:
1: void spam( enum Ingredient i )
2: {
3: switch( i ) {
4: case Ham:
5: be_a_pig();
6: break;
7: case Salt:
8: drink_some_water();
9: break;
10: default:
11: {
12: what_is_it();
13: break;
14: }
15: }
14: }
Here, lines 4, 7, and 10 are all assigned ‘case-label’ syntax, while
lines 5 and 8 are assigned ‘statement-case-intro’. Line 11 is treated
slightly differently since it contains a brace that opens a block; it is
given ‘statement-case-open’ syntax.
