Dear all, ECLiPSe provides iterators like foreach and friends - and they do their job. What is missing is a case statement. Sometimes you just have 20+ different mutually exclusive cases and you want to be sure that one of them is taken (else-case). Of course, choice points, two or more applicable cases, and unification issues make it difficult to choose among several design choices. nevertheless, I am sure a case statement with restrictions similar to those of foreach could be simple and useful in ECLiPSe. On the other hand, there might be an easy way to do it right now - an I'm just too blind to see it myself. Then, you should give me a gracious hint. Thanks and seasons greetings to all of you, Uli -- Ulrich Scholz scholz@informatik.tu-darmstadt.de http://www.intellektik.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de/~scholz [ reminder from mailing list administrator: please post only from the email address under which you are subscribed to this list, otherwise your message will not be forwarded, or only with a delay due to manual approval.
