LABEL1: System.out.print("HELP PLS");

[Ivan Ivanoff]

Hi all,
This code compiles and runs just fine ...
Why compiler and jvm ignores my 'LABEL1:' mark in this case ?
THX.
public class TestClass
{
public static void main(String [] sdfsdf){
for (int i=0;i<3;i++)
{
LABEL1: System.out.println(i);
}
}
}

Hi Ivan,
It'll work if you'll declare it outside of for(). Yes, it works and this is not strange. You can set label before anyware expecting break/continue calls. It will not ompile if you'll use this label with break. Sample:
=============================
public class TestClass
{
public static void main(String [] sdfsdf){
//works even outside of for()
LABEL1: System.out.println(1);
for (int i=0;i<3;i++) {
System.out.println(2);
//break LABEL1;-will not compile
}
}
}
============================
Thanx,
Jamal
