Can we call a "case" inside another case in the same switch statement in Java?

Question

My intention is to call two cases inside another case in the same switch statement,

switch (orderType) {
        case 1: 
            statement 1;
            break;
       case 2:
            statement 2;
            break;
       case 3:
             **call case 1;**
             **Call case 2;**
             break;
       default:
            break;`
}

Can we do that in Java?

Answer 1

Although you cannot influence the switch cases directly, you can call switch's parent method from one case and pass different arguments. For example,

void foo(int param1, String param2, ...) {
    switch (param1) {
        case 0:
            foo(1, "some string");
            break;

        case 1:
            //do something
            break;

        default:
            break;
    }
}

Answer 2

No, you can't jump to the code snippet in another switch case. You can however extract the code into an own method that can be called from another case:

switch (orderType) {
    case 1: 
        someMethod1();
        break;
    case 2:
        someMethod2();
        break;
    case 3:
        someMethod1();
        someMethod2();
        break;
    default:
        break;
}

void someMethod1() { ... }
void someMethod2() { ... }
