switch case question

Hi,

Will the code below work as:" if devFaultType is equal to
RbsTypes.RBS_DEV_FAULT_GENERAL_HW_ERROR or
RbsTypes.RBS_DEV_FAULT_TOO_LOW_MAIN_LOAD or ...
RbsTypes.RBS_DEV_FAULT_TMP_SENSOR_FAULT then set result equals true?".

//M

switch(devFaultType)
{
case RbsTypes.RBS_DEV_FAULT_GENERAL_HW_ERROR:
case RbsTypes.RBS_DEV_FAULT_TOO_LOW_MAIN_LOAD:
case RbsTypes.RBS_DEV_FAULT_TOO_LOW_PRIO_LOAD:
case RbsTypes.RBS_DEV_FAULT_TOO_HIGH_MAIN_LOAD:
case RbsTypes.RBS_DEV_FAULT_TMP_SENSOR_FAULT:
result=true;
break;
default:
....
}

It will return true for all the cases given except default.

What happened when you ran your code of which this this is an uncompilable
part? How can you hold the the opinion of some Usenet posters above what
your compiler tells you? If you really want our opinion, post a short,
complete, compilable, working example.

If those constants are primitives, it should work.

IIRC you need tiger to use final values from other classes in a
switch/case statement.
Also note that those final values are compiled into the bytecode, so if
you ever change the those final values you need to recompile all classes
that use them.
