Something like this would be nice:
Code: Select all
procedure Test(a)
Select a
case 1
Debug "1"
continue
case 2
Debug "2"
case 3:continue
case 4:continue
case 5
Debug "3"
endselect
endprocedure
and additional: the editor don't find the right topic for
procedureCDLL
Also nothing about ProcedureCDLL in the help (i know, what this command does)
same for
DeclareDLL
DeclareCDLL
GPI
[edit]
change code a little bit
test(1) ; Debug "1":Debug "2"
test(2) ; Debug "2"
test(3) ; Debug "3"
test(4) ; Debug "3"
test(5) ; Debug "3"

yeah, i see... i'm not sure i would ever use it though... it tends to take away a little from the readability of the code, and while i have a strong preference for select...endselect i would go for if...else...endif in the specific situation you describe
you mean 'continue' as in 'make_the_next_case_condition_true' but that's a bit long for a keyword

@GPI: Continue is included in the help file at topic 'Break & Continue'. The description tells you, that its thought for Repeat, For, ForEach and While. Is the using in a Select block a hidden feature ?
All other is up to Fred to answer

A big misunderstanding...
i know, that continue only work on loops. I want a extension, so that it also work on select -case (like in c, as i know.)

Nope, it's just the other way round. In C you have to tell the program to leave the Select Case by inserting a break. Your method would be more like forwarding.
