Syntax

Syntax:
breakOut name
Parameters:
name: String - name of the scope which was previously set with scopeName. "" will exit the current scope (see also exitWith)
Return Value:
Nothing

Alternative Syntax

Syntax:
value breakOut name
Parameters:
value: Anything - a value to return
name: String - name of the scope which was previously set with scopeName. "" will exit the current scope (see also exitWith)
Return Value:
Anything - will return value

Examples

Example 1:
scopeName "main"; while { true } do { scopeName "loop1"; while {true} do { scopeName "loop2"; if (condition1) then {breakTo "main"}; // Breaks all scopes and return to "main" if (condition2) then {breakOut "loop2"}; // Breaks scope named "loop2" sleep 1; }; sleep 1; };
Example 2:
call { scopeName "main"; call { 123 breakOut "main" }; 345 }; // call returns 123
Example 3:
call { scopeName "Main"; // Parent Main call { scopeName "Main"; // Child Main "String" breakOut "Main"; // Will break out of child main and return "String" to parent main }; };
