What is the difference (if any) between "yield" and "yield return" in C#?
I've traditionally used yield in C# without the return, e.g.:
IEnumerable<T> Foobar() {
foreach( var foo in _stuff ) {
yield foo;
}
}
But in other examples I've seen it written as "yield return foo;", see: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/9k7k7cf0%28VS.8开发者_高级运维0%29.aspx.
Is there any difference?
C# does not allow yield
all by itself - only yield return
and yield break
.
yield
is a contextual keyword that is only recognized inside iterator blocks and only in conjunction with either return
or break
.
