Subject: RE:  new object affectation in a switch

So, I don't understand why :

  switch (truc) {
  case 0:
    break;
  case 1:
    Thing *th;
    th = new Thing();
    break;
  case 2:
    break;
  case 3:
    break;
  }
is OK for g++.

  switch (truc) {
  case 0:
    break;
  case 1:
    break;
  case 2:
    break;
  case 3:
   Thing *th = new Thing;
    break;
  }

is "correct" too, but

  switch (truc) {
  case 0:
    break;
  case 1:
    Thing *th = new Thing;
    break;
  case 2:
    break;
  case 3:
    break;
  }

is rejected with a french and english (:-D) error message !
