#880 False +: AvoidInstantiatingObjectsInLoops on for loop expr.

[Nick Radov]

This code generates an AvoidInstantiatingObjectsInLoops warning on the expression inside the enhanced for loop. The warning is incorrect because only a single object is instantiated. It isn't creating a new object on every pass through the loop.

import java.util.ArrayList;

public class AvoidInstantiatingObjectsInLoops extends ArrayList<String> {

private AvoidInstantiatingObjectsInLoops() {
    add("foo");
    add("bar");
}

public static void main(final String[] args) {
    for (final String s : new AvoidInstantiatingObjectsInLoops()) {
        System.out.println(s);
    }
}
