Stop executing further code in Java

Question

I have looked in the Javadoc but couldn\'t find information related to this.

I want the application to stop executing a method if code in that method tells it to do

Answer 1

There are two way to stop current method/process :

1. Throwing Exception.
2. returnning the value even if it is void method.

Option : you can also kill the current thread to stop it.

For example :

public void onClick(){

    if(condition == true){
        return;
        
        throw new YourException();
    }
    string.setText("This string should not change if condition = true");
}
