WinForm button click event generated code missing RETURN

[Jamal]

Create a form, add a button, double click, the double button, it creates:

Code: Select all

PRIVATE METHOD button1_Click(sender AS OBJECT, e AS System.EventArgs) AS VOID STRICT

The RETURN statement is missing.

It may not be necessary but it's not conforming the VO standard or other designer generated code which include a RETURN statement or the Start function which includes it:

Code: Select all

FUNCTION Start() AS VOID
    
    Application.EnableVisualStyles()
    Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault( FALSE )
    Application.Run( Form1{} )
   
    RETURN

Edit: Using VS 2017

Jamal,
When the windows forms editor generates the event, it does not generate source code but an object model that describes the code.
The editor does not include a return statement. You should see that also in C# the generated code does not end with a return statement. But C# of course use curly braces so it is clear where the method ends.

This object model is the same as the object model that we generate when parsing the source code for forms.
I will see if we can detect that an event handler is generated from the forms editor and if we can then add the RETURN statement at the end of this code.

Robert,

I know about the C# braces thingy but that's how C# always behaved, however, if this a new feature of X# not to require that is good but there is no indication where the code ends.

I will see if we can detect that an event handler is generated from the forms editor and if we can then add the RETURN statement at the end of this code.

I think that would be better for the sake of consistency.
