break statement not within loop or switch error, cant figure out the problem, help!

so this is my code, it's suppose to locate the first occurrence of value and return its position and return -1 if not found. i dont understand why it's giving me this error, please help!

Code:

---

int list_search( itemType value, List L ) {
    if (L->count==0) {
                    printf("Warning: empty array!\n");
                      }
    else {
        int i;
        for (i=0; i<L->count; ++i);{
            if (L->data[i]==value) {
                return i+1;
                break;
            }
        }
        return -1;
    }
}

If you indented your code carefully, you might have spotted the problem:

Code:

---

int list_search( itemType value, List L ) {
    if (L->count==0) {
        printf("Warning: empty array!\n");
    }
    else {
        int i;
        for (i=0; i<L->count; ++i)
            /* do nothing in loop body */;

        {
            if (L->data[i]==value) {
                return i+1;
                break;
            }
        }
        return -1;
    }
}

In any case, the break would be unreachable since it comes right after a return statement.

And another issue; you don't return anything for an "empty array".

thanks guys!
