'for' loop with missing components

Reports for loops that lack initialization, condition, or update clauses. Some coding styles prohibit such loops.

Example:

for (int i = 0;;i++) { // body }

Locating this inspection

By ID

Can be used to locate inspection in e.g. Qodana configuration files, where you can quickly enable or disable it, or adjust its settings.

ForLoopWithMissingComponent
Via Settings dialog

Path to the inspection settings via IntelliJ Platform IDE Settings dialog, when you need to adjust inspection settings directly from your IDE.

Settings or Preferences | Editor | Inspections | Java | Control flow issues

Use the Ignore collection iterations option to ignore loops which use an iterator. This is a standard way to iterate over a collection in which the for loop does not have an update clause.
