Question

What is the most natural way to return an empty ActionResult (for child action)?

public ActionResult TestAction(bool returnValue)
{
   if (!returnValue)
     return View(EmptyView);

   return View(RealView);
}

One option I can see is to create an empty view and reference it at EmptyView… but may be there is any built-in option?

Answer 1

return instance of EmptyResult class

 return new EmptyResult();
