Loops violate Rule 14.3 - chrisT - 02-06-2015

Hello.

In our company, we have developers who uses

Code:
for(;;)

loops. Are these a violation against rule 14.3?

kind regards.

The ";" in a for loop control are part of the syntax for a //for// loop and not part of an "expression-statement".

Rule 14.3 only applies to "expression-statements" and therefore your for expression does not violate rule 14.3.
