I wonder if anyone has done a safe form of goto that does static analysis or something to see if the jump is safe. My only experience was making error handling easier to understand.


It is rather trivial to check if a control flow is reducible (can be a platform requirement, e.g., OpenCL spec demands this). But it is unlikely that you can do too much of a static analysis with a computed goto, and the latter is the most interesting and the most useful form.
