- Subject: Patch for continue in 5.1
- From: Peter Cawley <lua@...>
- Date: Thu, 11 Jun 2009 16:58:42 +0100
As discussed in the future of Lua thread, one way of adding a
"continue" statement to the language was to allow it in all cases,
except when it causes initialisation of a variable used in an until
clause to be skipped. The included patch is provided so that
discussions on this approach can be enhanced by experience of
experimenting with the approach.
Patch against 5.1.4: http://www.corsix.org/luacontinue/continue.patch
