break(1t) Tcl Built-In Commands break(1t) ______________________________________________________________________________ NAME break - Abort looping command SYNOPSIS break ______________________________________________________________________________ DESCRIPTION This command is typically invoked inside the body of a looping command such as for or foreach or while. It returns a 3 (TCL_BREAK) result code, which causes a break exception to occur. The exception causes the current script to be aborted out to the innermost containing loop command, which then aborts its execution and returns normally. Break exceptions are also handled in a few other situations, such as the catch command, Tk event bindings, and the outermost scripts of proce- dure bodies. EXAMPLE Print a line for each of the integers from 0 to 5: for {set x 0} {$x<10} {incr x} { if {$x > 5} { break } puts "x is $x" } ATTRIBUTES See attributes(7) for descriptions of the following attributes: +---------------+------------------+ |ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +---------------+------------------+ |Availability | runtime/tcl-8 | +---------------+------------------+ |Stability | Uncommitted | +---------------+------------------+ SEE ALSO catch(n), continue(n), for(n), foreach(n), return(n), while(n) KEYWORDS abort, break, loop NOTES Source code for open source software components in Oracle Solaris can be found at https://www.oracle.com/downloads/opensource/solaris-source- code-downloads.html.
