How do I break out of nested loops in Java?

Question

I\'ve got a nested loop construct like this:

for (Type type : types) {
    for (Type t : types2) {
         if (some condition) {
             // Do somethin

You can do the following:

1. set a local variable to false

2. set that variable true in the first loop, when you want to break

3. then you can check in the outer loop, that whether the condition is set then break from the outer loop as well.

   boolean isBreakNeeded = false;
   for (int i = 0; i < some.length; i++) {
       for (int j = 0; j < some.lengthasWell; j++) {
           //want to set variable if (){
           isBreakNeeded = true;
           break;
       }
   
       if (isBreakNeeded) {
           break; //will make you break from the outer loop as well
       }
   }
