How about if($a == $b) ? -----Original Message----- From: Gross, Stephan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 24, 2001 9:47 AM To: 'Beginner Perl' Subject: Why doesn't RETURN work?
I have a subroutine sub xyz { if ($a = $b) { return; } } When I run this in the debugger, it stays frozen on the RETURN statement. Shouldn't the RETURN break out of the xyz subroutine? Also, this used to work until I made some changes. Am I missing something obvious?
