Rule description

• GOTO should not be used to jump backwards

Non-compliant Code Example

function string TestFunctionCall (int cnt)

restart: 
if cnt > 0 then
	messagebox('Success','greater than 1 found ')
end if

smallint @count  

if cnt < 1 then
	messagebox('Success','less than 1 found  ')
	goto restart  //Non compliant code (As it is jumped backward on restart)
end if

messagebox('Success','finished test ')
@count = 1 

return "

end function

Compliant Code Example

	messagebox('Success','less than 1 found ')
	goto restart //Compliant code (As it is jumped forward on restart)
end if

messagebox('Success','finished test ')
@count = 1 

restart: 
if isvalid(cnt) and not isnull( cnt ) then
	messagebox('Success','test is valid ')
end if
