< Java Programming < Keywords

void is a Java keyword.

Used at method declaration and definition to specify that the method does not return any type, the method returns void. It is not a type and there is no void references/pointers as in C/C++.

For example:

public void method()
 {
   //...
   return;   // -- In this case the return is optional
//and not necessary to use public but some changes will be there
 }
