Goto out of a block: do destructors get called?

Question

Consider the following code:

void foo()
{
    {
        CSomeClass bar;

        // Some code here...

        goto label;

        // and here...
    }

lab         


        

Answer 1

1) Yes. 2) Don't do this.

Elaboration: conceptually, this is no different from leaving a loop via a break. goto, however, is strongly, strongly discouraged. It is almost never necessary to use goto, and any use should be scrutinized to find out what's going on.
