In put method of IdentityHashMap, I see a syntax which I've never seen before.
public V put(K key, V value) {
final Object k = maskNull(key);
retryAfterResize: for (;;) {
final Object[] tab = table;
final int len = tab.length;
int i = hash(k, len);
for (Object item; (item = tab[i]) != null;
i = nextKeyIndex(i, len)) {
if (item == k) {
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
V oldValue = (V) tab[i + 1];
tab[i + 1] = value;
return oldValue;
}
}
final int s = size + 1;
// Use optimized form of 3 * s.
// Next capacity is len, 2 * current capacity.
if (s + (s << 1) > len && resize(len))
continue retryAfterResize;
modCount++;
tab[i] = k;
tab[i + 1] = value;
size = s;
return null;
}
}
retryAfterResize: for (;;) and continue retryAfterResize; What does this syntax mean? Is there any terminology(Java doc) for this syntax? Thanks.
