Return from function early
PostPosted: Thu Aug 17, 2006 7:33 am     Reply with quote

Hiya,

I have a void function that I want to leave before the end of the function is reached, dependant on IF functions.

I've tried return(); but compiler errors with "Return value not allowed in void function" - is there another command that will abort the function?

Try:

return;

no ().

Uhhh.....

Things like Label/Goto, End/Stop, Return in a void function just to make the code stop are all regarded as poor programming methods in C.

If you can't think of a logical way to end your code from inside a function (I doubt its nothing a clevel if/else couldn't do), then make it an int or int1 function and find a way to use the returned data to your advantage.

Its easy to program like that, but in the end it will bite your [spam].
