  Hi,

  Yep you can't compile if there are no breaks in your case statement. The only exception on this rule if your case statement is empty.

  And if there were no breaks in that, it would promote error right

  Hi,

  C# switch doesn't support code fall-through, except when the case is empty. So you need to place breaks in your case if the case contains a code. Example:

  switch(myBool) {
  case 1:
  x = 100;
  case 2:
  x = 200;
  break;

  }

  The statement above is not permitted.

  switch(myBool) {
  case 1:
  case 2:
  x = 200;
  break;

  }

  The statement above is permitted and would cause a fall-through.

  cheers,

  Am I correct in thinking that only the first two lines would be executed
  

• Ricardo Francisco

  If it didn't have a break, then it would promote error
