C6294
Visual Studio 2010
warning C6294: Ill-defined for-loop: initial condition does not satisfy test. Loop body not executed
This warning indicates that a for-loop cannot be executed because the terminating condition is true. This warning suggests that the programmer's intent is not correctly captured.
The following sample code generates this warning because MAX_VALUE is 0:
#define MAX_VALUE 0
void f()
{
int i;
for (i = 0; i < MAX_VALUE; i++)
{
// code
}
}
The following sample code corrects this warning by changing the value of MAX_VALUE to 25
#define MAX_VALUE 25
void f()
{
int i;
for (i = 0; i < MAX_VALUE; i++)
{
// code
}
}
