These are evidently unhappy with code like
if ...
...
}
else
/* include it in range_str */ ;
So apparently preferred style is more like
else
{
/* include it in range_str */
}
I don't particularly care for the wording of this comment, either:
it looks like it's describing an action that's about to be taken,
only there's no action there. Could it say something more like
"we already included it in range_str", or "we'll include it in
range_str below the switch", or whatever's appropriate?
