Java won't allow a simple loop such as ：while (true)

Java won't allow a simple loop such as




while (true) {}




since any code following the loop will be unreachable (doh!). Java considers this an error, not a warning. (I don't agree, but they didn't ask me.) You can fool Java into doing this:




boolean flag=true;
while (flag) {}




if there is a way to break the loop, Java won't complain:




while (true) {




if (...) break;




}
