How do i exit a List.ForEach loop when using an anonymous delegate?

Question

In a normal loop you can break out of a loop using break. Can the same be done using an anonymous delegate?

Example inputString and result are both declared outside

Answer 1

I don't think there's an elegant way to do it when using the ForEach method. A hacky solution is to throw an exception.

What's preventing you from doing an old fashioned foreach?

foreach (string item in blackList)
{
    if (!inputString.Contains(item)) continue;

    result = true;
    break;
}
