Java: break out nested loops

• Method 1: Use label:

  
      whileloop: {
        while(true) {
          for(String s : strings) {
            if("DONE".equalsIgnoreCase(s)){
              break whileloop;
            }
          }
        }
      }

• Method 2: Use a boolean tag:

  
      boolean done = false;
      while(!done) {
        for(String s : strings) {
          if("DONE".equalsIgnoreCase(s)){
            done = true;
            break;
          }
        }
      }
