Can I code nested switch statements?

[asajay]

I think I hit a snag when trying to nest some switch cases.
ie.

switch (module)
{
case mod1:
code;
code;
break;
case mod2:
switch (cmd)
{
case 1:
code;
code;
break;
case 2;
code;
break
}
break;
}

I can't seem to get to work. The first switch case drops me into the proper module, but the next switch doesn't appear to execute and drop me into the proper command.

Is there a problem nesting switch statements like this, with the CCS compiler?

Thanks,
Asa Jay

Asa,
I have no problem with multiple nested switch statements. The only thing I do differently is to enclose the sub-switch statement in curly braces within the case test as I have shown in your modified code below. BTW, as a rule I always enclose my case sub-statements in braces to improve readability and appears to help me avoid this type of problem as a bonus!
