What this PR does / why we need it:
This PR allows the compiler to warn the user about redundant code if a
switch
control expression has a constant result, as suggested in #528.There are already similar warnings for
if
,while
,do-while
andfor
statements ("205: redundant code: constant expression is zero
" and "206: redundant test: constant expression is non-zero
"), so I think it should make sense to adopt a similar warning forswitch
.Which issue(s) this PR fixes:
