TYPO3.Fluid

Fluid should provide a Switch VH that behaves like the well-known switch-case structure.

Syntax suggestion:

<f:switch comparand="{foo.bar}">
  <f:switch.case comparand="valuecase1">
    <span>Output in this case.</span>
  </f:switch.case>

  <f:switch.case comparand="nothervaluecase">
    <a>Output in another case.</a>
  </f:switch.case>

  <f:switch.case comparand="third">
    <a>Output in another case.</a>
  </f:switch.case>

  <f:switch.default>
    Default value if nothing else matches.
  </f:switch.default>
</f:switch>

There's an already present implementation here: http://fedext.net/fed-viewhelpers/loops-conditions/switch/ but tbh I at least don't agree with the "default" implementation because it could collide with the value being "default" as string:

<fed:switch value="{switchValue}">
  <fed:case case="1">
      <p>Case was 1</p>
  </fed:case>
  <fed:case case="default">
    <p>Case was default</p>
  </fed:case>
</fed:switch>
