BLOCKS AND STATEMENTS

N

If the

Expression

 is present and the value resulting from its evaluation is

false

, no further action is taken and the

for

 statement completes normally.

If the value of the

Expression

 is

false

 the first time it is evaluated, then the

Statement

 is not executed.

If the

Expression

 is not present, then the only way a

for

 statement can com 

plete normally is by use of a

break

 statement.

14.12.3   Abrupt Completion of

for

 statement

Abrupt completion of the contained

Statement

 is handled in the following manner:

If execution of the

Statement

 completes abruptly because of a

break

 with no

label, no further action is taken and the

for

 statement completes normally.

If execution of the

Statement

 completes abruptly because of a

continue

 with

no label, then the following two steps are performed in sequence:

N

First, if the

ForUpdate

 part is present, the expressions are evaluated in

sequence from left to right; their values, if any, are discarded. If the

ForUpdate

part is not present, no action is taken.

N

Second, another

for

 iteration step is performed.

If execution of the

Statement

 completes abruptly because of a

continue

 with

label

L

, then there is a choice:

N

If the

for

 statement has label

L

, then the following two steps are performed

in sequence:

O

First, if the

ForUpdate

 part is present, the expressions are evaluated in

sequence from left to right; their values, if any, are discarded. If the

ForUpdate

 is not present, no action is taken.

O

Second, another

for

 iteration step is performed.

N

If the

for

 statement does not have label

L

, the

for

 statement completes

abruptly because of a

continue

 with label

L

.

If execution of the

Statement

 completes abruptly for any other reason, the

for

statement completes abruptly for the same reason. Note that the case of abrupt

completion because of a

break

 with a label is handled by the general rule for

labeled statements ( 14.6).
