EXIT vs EXIT WHEN

PL/SQL allows you to exit a loop using either of the following:

	EXIT
	EXIT WHEN

Why? I can't think of a single case where plain EXIT is superior to EXIT WHEN. So why are both allowed? Was there some backwards compatibility issue here? Did early versions of PL/SQL not support EXIT WHEN? Received on Sun May 10 1998 - 22:40:02 CDT
