New in 11g: Continue and Continue When

CONTINUE immediately moves to the next iteration of the loop.
CONTINUE WHEN conditionally moves to the next iteration of the loop.

BEGIN 
  FOR idx IN 1..3 
  LOOP 
    dbms_output.PUT_LINE('-----------------------------------'); 
    dbms_output.PUT_LINE('Idx ' 
    ||idx 
    ||': BeFore Continue. Mod(Idx,2) = ' 
    ||MOD(idx,2)); 
    --------------------------------------------------- 
    --    If Mod(i,2) = 0 THEN --{ This is the 
    --        Continue;        -- same as the 
    --    End If;              -- Continue When below.} 
    --------------------------------------------------- 
    CONTINUE 
  WHEN MOD(idx,2) = 0; 
    dbms_output.PUT_LINE ('After Continue. Print If Mod(Idx,2) is not 0.'); 
  END LOOP; 
END;
/

Notes:

• When using CONTINUE in a simple loop, make sure you increment your loop before the CONTINUE so you don't create an infinite loop.
• When using CONTINUE in a While loop, try using a GOTO and a label.
• Inlining impacts every call to CONTINUE and CONTINUE WHEN.
