Script Termination (return)

The return statement immediately halts script execution and makes the current Data context available to the caller. As the host and script share a single mutable Data context, Jyro’s return statement does not carry an expression value.

ReturnStmt       = "return" ;

When return is encountered, all remaining statements in the script are skipped and control returns to the host environment or calling context (i.e. the calling script). The data object reflects all modifications made up to the point where return was executed. Scripts should therefore ensure that Data is in a valid state before invoking return (e.g. recovery from an error condition).

Valid Syntax:

return

Notes

• return is always written without an expression
• Execution stops immediately when return is encountered
• The current Data context is returned to the caller
