Break out of a while loop that contains a switch statement
One option here is to refactor this loop into a method ("extract method"), and use return
.
I'd try to avoid it, but you could use...
goto
However, angry mobs with pitchforks become an occupational hazard if you choose to do so.
The only other way I know of is the dreaded goto. MSDN also says this.
However, I see no reason why you'd use it in this case. The way you have implemented works fine, and is more maintainable than a goto. I would keep what you have.
I find this form to be ever-so-slightly more readable:
bool done = false;
while (!done)
{
switch (MLTWatcherTCPIP.Get().ToUpper())
{
case "": //scroll/display next inventory location
MLTWatcherTCPIP.TerminalPrompt.ScrollBodyTextDown();
break;
case "P": //scroll/display previous inventory location
MLTWatcherTCPIP.TerminalPrompt.ScrollBodyTextDown();
break;
case "D": //DONE (exit out of this Do Loop)
done = true;
break;
case "Q": //QUIT (exit out to main menu)
return;
default:
break;
}
}
