Re: False positive warning: missing return statement and switch statements

Hi Frans,

Improve your code safety using C++ capabilities:

int toInt(const Number num)
{
  switch(num)
  {
  case Zero:
    return 0;
  case One:
    return 1;
  case Two:
    return 2;
  default:
    throw std::range_error("toInt(): enum Number out of range");
  }
}

Then the warning goes away, and your code is better.
