connect: remove superfluous conditional #7511
Closed
Conversation
Commit dbd16c3 cleaned up the logic for traversing the addrinfos, but the move left a conditional on ai which no longer is needed as the while loop reevaluation will cover it. Closes #xxxx

continue and break could be removed by adding "&& result == CURLE_COULDNT_CONNECT" to the while loop condition
It could, but it would have to be a do .. while loop instead as you'd otherwise inspect result before it's been set by the logic in question. Not sure that improves readability.
result is already initialized to the right value in line 579, so there is no need to change the loop AFAIK and IMHO makes the code more readable by meaning: "while there are still addresses to check and we hadn't be able to connect do ..."

It is, but there is no guarantee that there wont be code inserted between there and here which scribbles over result (and which misses to update the loop conditional).

A do .. while loop would satisfy that even better then, since the connection hasn't been attempted at that point.
