Overview

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

.exception	With no argument, or if the argument is the same as the receiver, return the receiver.
.new	Construct a new ::Exception object, optionally passing in a message.

#exit_value ⇒ Object

Returns the exit value associated with this LocalJumpError.
#reason ⇒ Symbol

The reason this block was terminated: :break, :redo, :retry, :next, :return, or :noreason.

#==	Equality—If obj is not an ::Exception, returns `false`.
#backtrace	Returns any backtrace associated with the exception.
#backtrace_locations	Returns any backtrace associated with the exception.
#cause	Returns the previous exception ($!) at the time this exception was raised.
#exception	With no argument, or if the argument is the same as the receiver, return the receiver.
#inspect	Return this exception's class name and message.
#message	Returns the result of invoking `exception.to_s`.
#set_backtrace	Sets the backtrace information associated with `exc`.
#to_s	Returns exception's message (or the name of the exception if no message is set).

This class inherits a constructor from Exception

Returns the exit value associated with this LocalJumpError.

The reason this block was terminated: :break, :redo, :retry, :next, :return, or :noreason.
