One handy rule of thumb is based on whether a "goto" is forward or back, in (to a loop or other control contruct) or out. Forward and out are generally OK - no worse than extra state flags and better than code duplication - so they generally don't bother me. A handful of times in my entire career, I've seen a backward goto that was (weakly) justified. I've never seen an inward goto that was anything but pure evil, and I don't expect to. Fortunately, many people don't even know they're possible, so they're rare. _______________________________________________ Gluster-devel mailing list Gluster-devel@gluster.org http://www.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-devel
