This is an error as per JLS. Therefore this cannot be changed or make optional. It is a mandatory error. Sorry. Closing as INVALID. |
Build Identifier: 20090920-1017 The following code is not compilable. ############## public void test() { return; System.out.println( "sdfsdf" ); } ############## The sysout will be marked as unreachable code. Even if this is true, I would like this to be handled like dead code and only warned about. Sometimes it is handy to just add a return statement to not execute the following code for testing. Sometimes I cannot simply comment out this code, because I already have block comments in it. Reproducible: Always
