EmptyWhileStmt

EmptyWhileStmt

Empty While Statement finds all instances where a while statement does nothing.
If it is a timing loop, then you should use Thread.sleep() for it; if it is a while loop that does a lot in the exit expression, rewrite it to make it clearer.



//WhileStatement/Statement[./Block[count(*) = 0]  or ./EmptyStatement]


Example(s):


  
void bar(int a, int b) {
	while (a == b) {
	// empty!
	}
}
