C# 15 Introduces Labeled break and continue to Simplify Nested Loop Control
C# 15 is set to introduce labeled break and continue statements, offering developers a cleaner way to exit or skip iterations in nested loops. Previously, programmers relied on Boolean flags, early returns, or goto statements to break out of multiple loop levels at once. The new syntax allows a label to be placed on an outer loop, which can then be directly targeted by break or continue, eliminating the need for temporary flag variables. Microsoft's documentation positions labeled jumps as a modern replacement for certain Boolean-flag and goto patterns in nested control flow. An accompanying analyzer, IDE0410, will also help identify existing code patterns that could be refactored using the new labeled jump syntax.
