goto statements in Java are virtually useless. There are other, better ways to accomplish anything a goto statement would be used for in Java (break and continue come to mind Remember, Java is not C or C++. It has it's own way of doing things. That's why we use Java. If we tried to "fix" everything C/C++ developers thought was "wrong" with it, we'd just have C all over again.
Thanks, but no thanks. I'll stick with my "evil" non-GPL Java.
I know for a fact that in the state of Virginia (where I live), you are required to present your driver's license for examination upon the request of any bona-fide law officer. Now, I am not sure if that only applies to driver's licenses or if the actual wording of the code is broad enough to include DMV-issued identification. Virginia tends to be a bit strict on this type of issue, especially since 9/11. But, I am sure other states have similar requirements. It all falls back to the "driving is a privilege, not a right" deal. I am looking for the actual code on Virgina's LIS now. I will post it if I find it.
