[REBOL] How can one use named constants in switch?
From: dlhawley::home::com at: 24-Oct-2001 21:33
I just spent a while trying to figure out why the following fails:
case_a: 1
case_b: 2
msgType: getMsg ... ; integer!
switch msgType [
case_a [ msgA ]
...
]
this fails since the cases are variables not constants (from a C perspective
where case_X would be an enum or #define). Is there any way to write this except
switch msgType [
1 [ msgA ]
...
]
? Thanks,
Dave
