Problem with Case If (Read 3316 times)

	There doesn't seem to be a way to insert a breakpoint in a code snippet like this: case 1: if (data == 0x62) step ++; else step = 0 break; The compiler spits out 'else' without a previous 'if' when I attempt to set a breakpoint on step ++ Is there a workaround? Regards.... Jim

	yes this problem is sort of documented on the beta page. the only workaround is to place the breakpoint somewhere else or change the code so that the if has braces. you can add conditions to breakpoints so the "if" can be re-created as the breakpoint condition allowing the breakpoint to be placed before or after the existing "if"

	Thanks Tim. I found the description after I posted. For others this seems to work well: case 1: if (data == 0x62) { step ++; // now a breakpoint here } else step = 0 break;
