class LocalJumpError - Documentation for Ruby 2.3.0 (original) (raw)

Raised when Ruby can't yield as requested.

A typical scenario is attempting to yield when no block is given:

def call_block yield 42 end call_block

raises the exception:

LocalJumpError: no block given (yield)

A more subtle example:

def get_me_a_return Proc.new { return 42 } end get_me_a_return.call

raises the exception:

LocalJumpError: unexpected return
