Subject: [ruby-core:124785] [Ruby Feature#21822] Expose Return Value in the ensure Block

Issue #21822 has been updated by matz (Yukihiro Matsumoto).


I don't think it's not worth for the new syntax, where you can do similar thing with:

```
begin
  ret = begin
    # ....
  end
ensure
  LOGGER.debug "return value: #{ret}"
end
```

Matz.

Feature #21822: Expose Return Value in the ensure Block
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/21822#change-116396

* Author: artemb (Artem Borodkin)
* Status: Open
----------------------------------------

I'd like to propose a simple feature that allows easy access to the return value inside an ensure block.

```ruby
begin 
   # ...
ensure => ret
   # ret is nil if an exception is raised
   LOGGER.debug "return value: #{ret}"
end
```
