static switch

[cal]

Does a switch statement acting on a template parameter act just 
like a chain of  static if-else's? That is, does it just generate 
the code for the matching case?

enum E { A, B, C }
class Blah(E param) {
  void foo() {
    switch(param) {
      case(E.A) : blah;
      case(E.B) : ....
      default:
    }
  }
}

Thanks,
