     14 <h2>Purpose</h2>
     15 
     16 <p>
     17 Return from a void method.
     18 </p>

     39 <h2>Constraints</h2>
     40 
     41 <ul>
     42   <li>
     43     The return type of the current method must be void.
     44   </li>
     45 </ul>
     46 
     47 <h2>Behavior</h2>
     48 
     49 <ul>
     50   <li>
     51     If the method is synchronized, the object's monitor is released in a way
     52     similar to the monitor-exit instruction.
     53   </li>
     54   <li>
     55     The stack frame of the current method invocation is removed from the stack.
     56     This includes all its registers becoming invalid.
     57   </li>
     58   <li>
     59     If the stack is now empty, the current thread terminates.
     60   </li>
     61   <li>
     62     Otherwise, the following happens:
     63     <ul>
     64       <li>
     65         The stack frame that caused this method invocation becomes valid. This
     66         includes all its registers and their old values.
     67       </li>
     68       <li>
     69         Execution continues at the bytecode instruction immediately following
     70         the invoke-kind or invoke-kind/range instruction that caused this method
     71         invocation.
     72       </li>
     73     </ul>
     74   </li>
     75 </ul>
