GCC allows you to declare <dfn>local labels</dfn> in any nested block
|
||
|
|
scope. A local label is just like an ordinary label, but you can
|
||
|
|
only reference it (with a <code>goto</code> statement, or by taking its
|
||
|
|
address) within the block in which it is declared.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>A local label declaration looks like this:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<pre class="smallexample"> __label__ <var>label</var>;
|
||
|
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
<p class="noindent">or
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<pre class="smallexample"> __label__ <var>label1</var>, <var>label2</var>, /* <span class="roman">...</span> */;
|
||
|
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
<p>Local label declarations must come at the beginning of the block,
|
||
|
|
before any ordinary declarations or statements.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>The label declaration defines the label <em>name</em>, but does not define
|
||
|
|
the label itself. You must do this in the usual way, with
|
||
|
|
<var>label</var><code>:</code>, within the statements of the statement expression.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>The local label feature is useful for complex macros. If a macro
|
||
|
|
contains nested loops, a <code>goto</code> can be useful for breaking out of
|
||
|
|
them. However, an ordinary label whose scope is the whole function
|
||
|
|
cannot be used: if the macro can be expanded several times in one
|
||
|
|
function, the label is multiply defined in that function. A
|
||
|
|
local label avoids this problem. For example:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<pre class="smallexample"> #define SEARCH(value, array, target) \
|
||
|
|
do { \
|
||
|
|
__label__ found; \
|
||
|
|
typeof (target) _SEARCH_target = (target); \
|
||
|
|
typeof (*(array)) *_SEARCH_array = (array); \
|
||
|
|
int i, j; \
|
||
|
|
int value; \
|
||
|
|
for (i = 0; i < max; i++) \
|
||
|
|
for (j = 0; j < max; j++) \
|
||
|
|
if (_SEARCH_array[i][j] == _SEARCH_target) \
|
||
|
|
{ (value) = i; goto found; } \
|
||
|
|
(value) = -1; \
|
||
|
|
found:; \
|
||
|
|
} while (0)
|
||
|
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
<p>This could also be written using a statement expression:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<pre class="smallexample"> #define SEARCH(array, target) \
|
||
|
|
({ \
|
||
|
|
__label__ found; \
|
||
|
|
typeof (target) _SEARCH_target = (target); \
|
||
|
|
typeof (*(array)) *_SEARCH_array = (array); \
|
||
|
|
int i, j; \
|
||
|
|
int value; \
|
||
|
|
for (i = 0; i < max; i++) \
|
||
|
|
for (j = 0; j < max; j++) \
|
||
|
|
if (_SEARCH_array[i][j] == _SEARCH_target) \
|
||
|
|
{ value = i; goto found; } \
|
||
|
|
value = -1; \
|
||
|
|
found: \
|
||
|
|
value; \
|
||
|
|
})
|
||
|
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
<p>Local label declarations also make the labels they declare visible to
|
||
|
|
nested functions, if there are any. See <a href="Nested-Functions.html#Nested-Functions">Nested Functions</a>, for details.
