Out of a function?
In the goto case, I write a function conatining the array of
&&label_foo, and do a lot of gotos inside a while(1) loop.
Neither a 'break' nor a 'return' in the end op seems to be helping.
The function is declared to return void, so a 'return' at the
bottom of the function doesn't matter, really (yes, I tried it).
all this followed by
#define DO_OP(pc,interpreter) goto_op_dispatch((pc),(interpreter))
Sigh.
What we _really_ want anyway, IMHO, is a not-compiler-specific
way to write the gotos. I have not the expertise at this time,
as I discovered to my chagrin after several hours of experimentation
yesterday. Cant use something like '5' as the goto label. Damn.
Enums didn't help matters. As mjd says, ingenuity is always in
short supply. More eyes?
