Loop statement that does not loop
Reports any instance of for
, while
, and do
statements whose bodies will be executed once at most. Normally, this is an indication of a bug.
Use the Ignore enhanced for loops option to ignore the foreach loops. They are sometimes used to perform an action only on the first item of an iterable in a compact way.
Example:
for (String s : stringIterable) {
doSomethingOnFirstString(s);
break;
}
