[amibroker] "break" statement in AFL

Title: "break" statement in AFL

Hi,

I’m trying to maximize the speed of a text lookup that involves a “While” loop (code sample below).  The traditional way of breaking out of a “While” loop is to use a “break” statement (or something similar).    

I can’t find anything similar to a “break” statement in AFL.   Did I miss it?   Any workarounds?

Thanks and regards,

Dan.

p.s., Yes, I know that reading from a file won’t be super-fast.  If I can prove my concept and see a performance hit, I’ll try the Osaka plugin or something similar.

fh = fopen( "C:\\Program Files\\AmiBroker\\LookupData\\" + Symbol + ".csv ", "r");

if( fh )

        {

        while( ! feof( fh )                       )

                {

                CurRow = fgets( fh );

                if (StrExtract(CurRow, 0) == "YHEDDate")

                        sDateString = StrExtract(CurRow, 1);

                }

        fclose( fh );

}
