While occasionally intended, this construct can be extremely confusing, and is often the result of a typo. -Assignments in plain for loops without an update statement are not reported. +

+Assignments in basic for loops without an update statement are not reported. +In these cases the assignment is probably intended and can't be easily moved to the update part of the for loop. +For example: +


+  for (int i = 0; i < list.size(); ) {
+    if (element.equals(list.get(i))) {
