Improve this questionI have been looking for quite some time for an answer to this, and I haven't found one so i decided to ask. For some reason I'm getting an illegal case statement error. This is for my final project and my teacher can't even find the error. It was working fine before, but after it put in something then took it out, the case statement stopped working...even though the code's the same...

I apologize for such a long code but I have no idea where the error is. Here is the error in the compiler:
Compiling...
final project.cpp
H:\Comp. Prog\final project.cpp(232) : error C2046: illegal case
Error executing cl.exe.
final project.exe - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)
You have too many closing braces, specifically the one immediately preceding break; case '0':.
This is closing off your switch statement which is why it's complaining about the naked case.
Having said that, the deletion of that extraneous brace will cause another problem since you then don't close off the switch statement at all. Immediately after the case '0' block, you close off the do loop without first closing off the switch. You'll need to put another } in there.
Might I suggest that you refactor your code to make it a little easier to read? In my opinion, case blocks should have a small number of lines in them (e.g., 10). Any more than that, or if there's a lot of indent levels, and it should just call a function to do the grunt-work.
That would have probably made your error more apparent since, if it didn't avoid it altogether, it would have at least moved it to the case '9' function.
You've got an extra closing brace in case '9':
if (shipping == '2') //checks out without shipping
{
// skipped
} // <-------
if (receipt == '2')
{
cout << "If you have any questions please call (781)-452-2079."<< '\n';
cout << "Thank you for shopping at The Sperry Store!" << '\n';
}
no_ship(); //declares function
}
You should really work on your indentation, as it improves readability for you and others. Your problem is that case '0': is outside of the switch statement (with proper indentation that would have jumped at you).
