C/AL Code

Hi, all

I search for C/al intructions to break a specific step in "While" loop instruction.
If hou have any idea about it, pease share with me.
Thanks.

Didn't come across BREAK (in case of Dataport, Report or XMLport)?

In other cases: can't you create a valid condition in the WHILE statement that make the loop end?

I don't want to end the loop but a specific step at a condition and a loop continue.

Why not just like this?

WHILE condition1 DO BEGIN
  IF condition2 THEN BEGIN
    ....
  END;
END;

use Break with a specific condition.

if (condition) then
break;

Thanks you Einstein.net, it's work.

y not try something like this?

record.find('-');
repeat
if record.age = 45 then
break;
until record.next <=0;

And the syntax requires that you use CurrReport.BREAK (not case sensitive). If you leave off the CurrReport. prefix, you will get the error message, namely the compiler asking you to define the unknown variable "break".

Another alternative

WHILE condition1 OR Condition2 DO BEGIN
END;

or

WHILE condition1 DO BEGIN
  REPEAT
  UNTIL Condition2
END;

There's no C/AL command to actually jump out of a loop. If you have to jump out, you'll have to create a function for the code inside and use EXIT.
