Mr. Kremer, you start your reply with "No." So you think that correct execution of a switch statement constitutes abnormal entry to the block. I conjecture that very few will agree with you. Otherwise, it seems that both posters are correct. Executing a switch statement is both normal entry and a jump to a label. The standard is self-contradictory. -- Norman Diamond, Sony Corporation (diamond@ws.sony.junet) The above opinions are inherited by your machine's init process (pid 1), after being disowned and orphaned.
