#1199 PMD CheckResultSet gives false positive in a do/while loop

[michael beaumont]

The following code gives a CheckResultSet Error, when it is being checked correctly in both the outer if
and the while

ResultSet results = null;
String answer;
List<String> stringList =  new ArrayList<String>();

//check the result set.  Yes, this moves the cursor to the first position
if (results.first()) {
    //do a little logic
    do {
    //this is handeling paging
    if (results.getInt("RowNum") >= firstEntry && results.getInt("RowNum") <= lastEntry) {      
        answer  = results.getString("answer");
        stringList.add(answer);
    } else {
        results.last();
    }
    } while(results.next());  //advance the cursor to the next position
}

Unfortunately your code example doesn't trigger the rule (anymore?).
On which line did you get the violation report?

[michael beaumont]

We have refactored the code that contained this issue and are no longer getting a false positive. Since i am unable to replicate it elsewhere, it can be marked as closed

Thanks for the feedback.
