It's fairly easy to use label, You can break the outer loop from inner loop using the label, Consider the example below,
public class Breaking{
public static void main(String[] args) {
outerscope:
for (int i=0; i < 5; i++) {
for (int j=0; j < 5; j++) {
if (condition) {
break outerscope;
}
}
}
}
}
Another approach is to use the breaking variable/flag to keep track of required break. consider the following example.
public class Breaking{
public static void main(String[] args) {
boolean isBreaking = false;
for (int i=0; i < 5; i++) {
for (int j=0; j < 5; j++) {
if (condition) {
isBreaking = true;
break;
}
}
if(isBreaking){
break;
}
}
}
}
However, I prefer using the first approach.
