I understand this is defensive programming, but i wonder if a comment for the parallel switches might be better (it's also possible to tell coverity to shut up, I just don't have handy access to the documentation, so, i'd have to find someone to look it up) 6731 ComprehensionTail(JSParseNode *kid, uintN blockid, JSTreeContext *tc, 6816 switch (tt) { 6818 case TOK_LB: 6819 case TOK_LC: 6825 break; 6828 case TOK_NAME: 6841 break; 6843 default: 6847 case TOK_ERROR: 6848 return NULL; 6849 } after this switch, tt must be TOK_LB, TOK_LC, or TOK_NAME 6857 switch (tt) { 6859 case TOK_LB: 6860 case TOK_LC: 6877 break; 6880 case TOK_NAME: 6884 break; so this isn't reachable: 6886 default:; 6887 }
We do this to avoid GCC warnings. Will GCC versions (all supported) track the data and control flow and avoid warning that the second switch is not exhaustive? /be
