[next] [prev] [prev-tail] [tail] [up]

#### 14.9.8 noreturn

The noreturn modifier can be used to tell the compiler the procedure does not return. This information can used by the compiler to avoid emitting warnings about uninitialized variables or results not being set.

In the following example, the compiler will not emit a warning that the result may not be set in function f:

procedure do_halt;noreturn;
begin
halt(1);
end;
function f(i : integer) : integer ;
begin
if (i<0) then
do_halt
else
result:=i;
end;
