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's a while loop that does a lot in the exit expression, rewrite it to make it clearer.
This rule is defined by the following XPath expression:
//WhileStatement/Statement[./Block[count(*) = 0] or ./EmptyStatement]
Example:
public class Foo {
void bar(int a, int b) {
while (a == b) {
// empty!
}
}
}
