When a multi-line statement appears on the same line as a case label, the following lines in the `case block' are not correctly indented. Example: int function() { switch (arg) { case 1: printf("Action to be taken for" "case 1 here\n"); printf("This line indented incorrectly!\n"); break; case 2: printf("Action to be taken for" "case 2 here\n"); printf("This line indented incorrectly!\n"); break; default: printf("Not allowed!\n"); } return 0; } The following patch hopefully rectifies the situation in the correct fashion (there's some intricate stuff going on in there :-)), to produce: int function() { switch (arg) { case 1: printf("Action to be taken for" "case 1 here\n"); printf("This line indented incorrectly!\n"); break; case 2: printf("Action to be taken for" "case 2 here\n"); printf("This line indented incorrectly!\n"); break; default: printf("Not allowed!\n"); } return 0; }
