break/continue nested loop

[riwu]

Are there constructs in FPC to break/continue multi/nested loops?
Or are using flags/labels the only way?

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1.  
2.   for i:=0 to 10 do
3.   begin
4.     for j:=0 to 10 do
5.     begin
6.       if someCondition then
7.         break(2); //break out of both loops, go to methodC
8.  
9.       if someCondition2 then
10.         continue(2); //break out if j loop and skip methodB
11.  
12.       methodA();
13.     end;
14.  
15.     methodB();
16.   end;
17.  
18.   methodC();

No.

Never do that! Break down the lops to procedures/functions instead:

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. function LoopJ: Integer;
2. var
3.   J: integer;
4. begin
5.   Result := -1; //default, no special attention needed
6.   for J := 0 to 10 do
7.   begin
8.     if SomeCondition1 then
9.     begin
10.       Result := 0;
11.       Exit; //break out of both loops, go to methodC
12.     end;
13.  
14.     if SomeCondition2 then
15.     begin
16.       Result := 1;
17.       Exit; //break out j loop and skip methodB
18.     end;
19.     MethodA;
20.   end;
21. end;
22.  
23. procedure LoopI;
24. var
25.   I, Res: Integer;
26. begin
27.   for I := 0 to 10 do
28.   begin
29.     Res := LoopJ;
30.     case Res of    
31.       0: Exit;
32.       1: Continue;
33.     end;
34.     MethodB;
35.     //you can add other stuff here
36.   end;
37. end;
38.  
39. procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
40. begin
41.   LoopI;
42.   MethodC
43. end;  
44.

Some languages features look superfluous but when you need them you're happy to have them.

Some languages features look superfluous but when you need them you're happy to have them.

We're not talking about 'some superfluous language features' but about a specific (albeit theoritical and contrived and therefore rather superfluous) question from TS.
Getmem already answered more comprehensively the direction TS needs to lean towards.
