[LCP]Address of a label

[Chirag Kantharia]

Hello,

Is it possible to get address of a label, from within a C program? What
I want to do is the following:

I have a huge switch() statement, which looks like this:

    switch(*pc)
    {
    	case 1:
		do_something1;
		break;
	case 2:
		do_something2;
		break;
        ...
    }

Since my switch is really huge (close to 200 cases), I was wondering if
it were possible to optimize it, by storing labels in an array.

   struct label array[NO_OF_CASES];

and "goto array[*pc].label;"

(I know the syntax is wrong, but I hope I get the idea across).

I know it's possible with function pointers, but I will have to convert
all the do_somethings to functions.

  void (*do_something1)(void)
  {
  }

  void (*do_something2)(void)
  {
  }

  struct label {
  	void (*f)(void);
  };

  And, I simply use 
    array[*pc].f();

(Of course, there's an assumption that the cases are sequential: they go
from 1, 2, 3.. 200).

I want to know if it's possible using labels. And if yes, then how.

chyrag.
