The BREAK statement is only valid when used inside a FOR or WHILE loop. It immediately causes execution of the code segment inside the loop to abort, and execution resumes at the first instruction after the end of the loop.

If loop conditions are nested, the BREAK statement only exits the innermost loop. To exit all nested loops refer to BREAKALL.

Parameters

None

 

Return Value

Example Code

while(bContinueProcessing == TRUE)

for(int Counter = 0; Counter < 10; Counter++)
{
    while(bContinueProcessing == TRUE)
    {
        // Immediately abort the while loop
        break;
    }

    // Code execution resumes here
}
