Within SWITCH command, FOR, or WHILE statements in an OLAP DML program, the BREAK command transfers program control from within a SWITCH, FOR, or WHILE statement to the statement immediately following the DOEND associated with SWITCH, FOR, or WHILE.
TEMPSTAT Statement and BREAK Statement
Within a FOR loop of a program, when a DO ... DOEND phrase follows TEMPSTAT, status is restored when the DOEND, BREAK, or GOTO is encountered.
Example 9-58 Using BREAK with SWITCH
The following lines from a program include a SWITCH command with two case labels. The last statement under each case label is BREAK, which ensures that execution does not continue from one set of case statements to the next. Each BREAK statement transfers control to the statement that follows DOEND.
