Re: [sv-bc] Errata: return out of fork...join

Steve,

That is covered in Section 9.6:

"A return statement within the context of a fork...join statement is
illegal and shall result in a compilation error."

You still bring up a good point. This needs to be covered in both sections.

Section 8.6 has a restriction to keep continue and break statements from
trying to exit from the inside of a fork...join. However, it fails to
restrict the return statement the same way.

It should state that the return statement cannot be used inside a
fork...join block.

Also, these restrictions should apply to the new fork...join_any and
fork...join_none constructs as well.
