Function _ret() Foundation

Sets the return value of the function to NIL.

Syntax
BOOL _ret(XppParamList pList);
Parameters
XppParamList pList
Pointer to the Xbase++ parameter list for the function whose return value is being set.
Return

Always returns TRUE.

Description

_ret() is used to return a NIL value to Xbase++. Calling this function does not exit the function but merely sets the return value. After the call an access to other C-API functions except for _conRelease() is not allowed anymore and the function should return immediately.

To insure correct operation, a return value has always to be set. In Xbase++, NIL should always be returned for procedures, which are functions without return values.

Examples
/* 
Sets NIL as the return value and terminates the function. 
*/ 
#include <xpppar.h> 

_ret(<pList>); 
return;
