This code: print( – Start); int[] num = new int[] {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10}; for(int i :

  • 0

This code:

print(" - Start");
int[] num = new int[] {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10};
for(int i : num)
{
    print("--> "+ i);
    try
    {
        print("    . try");
        if(i == 2)
            break;
    }
    catch (java.lang.Exception e)
    {}
    finally
    {
        print("    . finally");
    }
}
print(" - End");

Does not work as expected. I.e. the break seems not to work.
Can anyone explain why this is?

    I’m gonna say it’s a BeanShell bug. Not for the reasons outlined below (those apply only to Java on the Mac), but because if you put the same code in a main method in a “classic” Java application it does not behave in the same way. That is, the break condition works.

    The following applies only to the latest version of Java on the Mac.

    I think it’s a BeanShell bug. When I try changing the if to the following BeanShell hangs up:

    if(i == 2) {
    print("trying to break");
    break;
}

    I forced-closed it and restarted it with the command line. I see the following errors:

    $ java -jar bsh-2.0b4.jar
