You do have a
Void
type in Java if you really must specify a return type and don't want to return anything e.g. services and their tasks in JavaFx. The Task must have a return type thus you can use Void if the task doesn't actually return anything.Well, yeah, but that
Void
type is different than theVoid
type in Haskell.The Haskell-Void says that the function never returns. So, for example, if the function always goes into an infinite loop. Or only ever throws an exception or does a
System.exit(0)
. You cannot portray that in Java, to my knowledge.
