# Replace For-Loop with Stream::Match
# Description
Replaces occurrences of enhanced for-loops which are only used to initialize or return a boolean variable with Stream::anyMatch, Stream::allMatch or Stream::noneMatch.
The stream syntax is more concise and improves readability.
# Benefits
Applying this rule results in better readability.
# Tags
# Code Changes
# Loop with break statement to Stream::anyMatch
Pre
boolean containsEmpty = false;
for(String value : strings) {
if(value.isEmpty()) {
containsEmpty = true;
break;
}
}
Post
boolean containsEmpty = strings.stream().anyMatch(value -> value.isEmpty());
# Loop with break statement to Stream::noneMatch
Pre
boolean noneEmpty = true;
for(String value : strings) {
if(value.isEmpty()) {
noneEmpty = false;
break;
}
}
Post
boolean noneEmpty = strings.stream().noneMatch(value -> value.isEmpty());
# Loop with break statement to Stream::allMatch
Pre
boolean allEmpty = true;
