Bug description: SWITCH fails when DEFAULT statement included
Description:
------------
The "switch" statement fails when a "default" case is included, as in the
example below. It makes no difference if there's a "break" at the end of
the default case.
I'm not leaving out any parentheses, braces or semi-colons. In fact, all
you need to do in order to get the switch statement below to work is
comment out the last two lines before the closing brace.
Reproduce code:
---------------
$test = 'a';
switch ($test)
{
case 'a':
print 'a';
break;
case 'b':
print 'b';
break;
default:
print 'neither';
}
Expected result:
----------------
String 'a' should be printed on screen.
Actual result:
--------------
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_DEFAULT in D:\htdocs\Test\test.php
on line 12
