#2073 closed Bug (Fixed)

ContinueLoop crashes script if nothing to jump

Reported by: Melba23 Owned by: trancexx
Milestone: 3.3.9.0 Component: AutoIt
Version: 3.3.8.0 Severity: None
Keywords: ContinueLoop Cc:

Description (last modified by Melba23)

Using ContinueLoop without a following statement to jump over to reach Next crashes AutoIt with:

"ContinueLoop" statement with no matching "While", "Do" or "For" statement.:

The Help file states:

ContinueLoop will continue execution of the loop at the expression testing statement (that is the While, Until or Next statement).

Code:

; Works
For $i = 1 To 3
	If $i = 2 Then
		ContinueLoop
	EndIf
Next

; Works
For $i = 1 To 3
	If $i = 2 Then ContinueLoop
	Sleep(10)
Next

; Crashes
For $i = 1 To 3
	If $i = 2 Then ContinueLoop
Next

Au3Check passes all 3 versions. I realise the final loop is badly coded, but I feel it should not crash AutoIt.

According to the original thread http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/135947-bug/
it does not crash in v3.3.6.1.

Replying to trancexx:

Issue is introduced by revision [5885].

In fact something else as this rev has been reverted by Jon rev 6138
perhaps the duplicate of 1503

Another instance of a highly related issue:
{{{#include <GuiListView.au3>
#include <SQLite.au3>}}}
due to the "final" ExitLoop at line 7112 of first include.
Temporary ugly workaround seems to work: insert dummy instruction after offending ExitLoop, ContinueLoop, ContinueCase, like "Local $Dummy".

I tested this by adding a line after line #7114 in GUIListView.au3, I just put $hWnd += 1 in that line, and this error went away. I'm not sure if it's related to the issue with ContinueLoop or not but it seems similar.
