The return type

[Marcus]

Is there a way for a method to not return anything if a certain condition is met, despite the fact that I have specified an integer return type for that particular method?

Thanks

Only way I can think of is to have the method throw an exception, like this:

Code:

public int someMethod(int input) throws SomeException
{

if(input <= 0)
{
throw new SomeException("Input must be greater than zero.");
}
else
{
//do something
return something;
}

}
