RE: [flexcoders] FLEX BUG: Nested switch case statements fail to compile correctly

[Matt Chotin]

Turns out this is a Player bug.  An engineer investigated and filed it.  Some notes:   In this case, it turns out the bug is in the player, not the compiler.  It's actually even worse than he says: you can have a single switch statement, not a nested one, and still reproduce the problem.   The workarounds are the ones he already discovered: either to set a breakpoint earlier in the function and then step until you get to the code you want to examine, or else don't use if/then instead of a switch statement.   So we’ll see what we can do but you know what you can do in the meantime.   Matt From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of EECOLOR Sent: Tuesday, October 10, 2006 1:47 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] FLEX BUG: Nested switch case statements fail to compile correctly   Hello,   the problem might be caused by the { and } you place around you switch statements. The following code works just fine.     Greetz Erik     public function testAS()   {    var x1:Object = {type: "x", data: {a: 1}};    var x2:Object = {type: "x", data: {a: 2}};    var y1:Object = {type: "y", data: {a: 3}};    var y2:Object = {type: "y", data: {a: 4}};        check(x1);    check(x2);    check(y1);    check(y2);   };      private function check(o:Object):void   {    switch (o.type)    {      case "x":        switch (o.data.a )        {         case 1:             trace("1 X");             break;         case 2:             trace("2 X");             break;        };         break;      case "y":        switch (o.data.a)        {          case 3:             trace("3 Y");             break;         case 4:             trace("4 Y");             break;        };       break;     };   };     output: 1 X 2 X 3 Y 4 Y   __._,_.___ -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com SPONSORED LINKS Software development tool Software development Software development services Home design software Software development company Your email settings: Individual Email|Traditional Change settings via the Web (Yahoo!
