What is the syntax to leave a method prematurely?

Thank you,

Hi,

The syntax to leave a method prematurely is 'return;' provided your method is supposed to return a void. If otherwise, you would have to return a type with it as well.

Example:

public class Test
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
helloWorld();
System.out.println(howRU());
}
public static void helloWorld()
{
int a = 0;
System.out.println("Hello World!!"
if (a == 0)
return;
System.out.println("Hello Worlds!!"
}
public static String howRU()
{
int a=0;
System.out.println("How are you?"
if (a == 0)
return "";
System.out.println("How are you?"
return "I am fine";
}
}

For leaving a method you use the return statement. Even if the method is defined as void. But be shure that there is a check before leaving the method, otherwise at compilation the error "Statement is not reached" will be shown.

public void myMethod()
{
// Do some stuff here
if(true)
return; // leave the method
// This is not reached in this example
}

Greetings,
Steven.
