Just got hit by this. Is this difficult to backport to supported versions? ---------------------------------------- Bug #11143: it should always be possible to return from an if https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/11143#change-85150 * Author: bughit (bug hit) * Status: Closed * Priority: Normal * Backport: 2.0.0: UNKNOWN, 2.1: UNKNOWN, 2.2: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- ``` irb(main):001:0> def foo; a = if true then return end end SyntaxError: (irb):1: void value expression ``` it should not matter that you are not producing a value for the if expression, since you are leaving the method immediately. This should also apply to other jumps. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
