== Why is this an issue?
|
|
|
|
Nested control flow statements ``++if++``, ``++for++``, ``++for in++``, ``++while++``, ``++do while++`` and ``++switch++`` are often key ingredients in creating
|
|
what's known as "Spaghetti code". This code smell can make your program difficult to understand and maintain.
|
|
|
|
When numerous control structures are placed inside one another, the code becomes a tangled, complex web.
|
|
This significantly reduces the code's readability and maintainability, and it also complicates the testing process.
|
|
|
|
== How to fix it
|
|
|
|
=== Code examples
|
|
|
|
The following example demonstrates the behavior of the rule with the default threshold of 3 levels of nesting:

if condition1 { // Compliant - depth = 1

/* ... */
|
|
if condition2 { // Compliant - depth = 2

|
/* ... */
|
|
for var i = 0; i < 10; i++ { // Compliant - depth = 3, not exceeding the limit
|
|
/* ... */
|
|
if condition4 { // Non-Compliant - depth = 4
|
|
if condition5 { // Depth = 5, exceeding the limit, but issues are only reported on depth = 4
|
|
/* ... */

|
}
