You do realize that this is:

  label:
  while(condition) {

    break label;

  }

As a C programmer this confuses me to no end.  When I see "label:" I expect control to end up there and the loop to be executed again.  I realize all the Java folks have gotten used to this, but I don't think I ever will.


Yes, but it's quite obvious to me if I replace the labeled break with break 1;
I'd expect continue label; to step into the loop again.

By the way, +0 does not mean -1 for goto.
