Q:
Using IntelliJ debugger, is it possible to continue through a collection iteration until a variable returns null?
The following code snippet is part of a Spring MVC controller. Using commons-collections, it iterates over a List of County objects and transforms it into a List of String[] to return to the client. Using the value from the "searchTerm" variable to find the data. The problem I'm having is every so often, a particular search term causes the transformer to throw an exception because the County .getState() method seems to return null. So I'm wondering if using IntelliJ's debugger, can I tell it to continually iterate until a variable is null. A breakpoint causes me to step over each iteration manually, but with a large collection, that could take a while.
Thanks.
public List<String[]> cityLookup(@PathVariable String searchTerm) {
List<County> counties = countyService.findAllByPartialCity(searchTerm);
return new ArrayList<String[]>(CollectionUtils.collect(counties, new Transformer() {
@Override
public Object transform(Object o) {
return new String[]{((County) o).getId().getCity(), ((County) o).getState().getStateCode()};
}
}));
}
A:
In the breakpoints dialog there should be a conditions option.

Politico describes the signs as a “gallows humor” effort by campaign manager Robby Mook, but it’s also important security advice during an election cycle in which hacks and leaks have dominated headlines.
In recent weeks, WikiLeaks has posted caches of what it says are messages from Clinton campaign chair John Podesta’s personal Gmail account. And there's at least one glaring password security mistake among the emails leaked so far: Podesta had his former assistant email him his Apple ID and password.
Users on the /pol/ board of 4chan — a mostly anonymous forum where members are fond of posting pro-Donald Trump memes — discovered the log-in information quickly and claimed to have used it to remotely wipe Podesta’s Apple devices.
Podesta’s Twitter account was also hacked to display a tweet supporting Trump’s candidacy that also contained an apparent reference to the /pol/ board.
But the Podesta emails are just the latest in a string of hacks that have primarily targeted the Democratic Party, including a breach at the Democratic National Committee that resulted in then-chairwoman Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz's (D-Fla.) resignation.

Bill O'Reilly Sued for Sexual Harassment
A producer for the FOX News Channel has sued the cable network's biggest star, Bill O'Reilly, accusing him of sexual harassment. The woman filed her legal papers only hours after O'Reilly sued her, claiming that she and her lawyer had tried to extort money from him.
The producer, Andrea Mackris, who went to work for O'Reilly in 2000 but left the job recently, says the commentator had phone sex with her against her wishes three times, the Associated Press reports. In his claim against Mackris and her attorney, Benedict Morelli, O'Reilly said Morelli demanded $60 million in "hush money" not to proceed with her lawsuit.
"As a public figure, I have received many threats," O'Reilly, 55, said Wednesday night on his program, The O'Reilly Factor. "But enough is enough ... The threats stop now. I will not give in to extortion." The commentator called the legal action against him "the single most evil thing I have ever experienced, and I've seen a lot."
O'Reilly, who's married with kids, also charges that Morelli is a contributor to the Democratic Party. The attorney said at a press conference Wednesday that his political contributions had nothing to do with the case.
In her papers, Mackris, 33, said that during one phone conversation this past August O'Reilly suggested she buy a vibrator and was clearly excited. Before hanging up, she said, O'Reilly told her: "I appreciate the fun phone call."
The New York Times reports that O'Reilly has not specifically denied any of the accusations in Mackris's suit, which was filed in New York State Supreme Court in Manhattan. Among her other claims, the newspaper says: O'Reilly repeatedly spoke offensively about sex over the phone while using a vibrator on himself and that he fantasized about having sex with her in the shower.
In a Sept. 21 phone call, Mackris claims, O'Reilly said: "Next time you'll come up to my hotel room and we'll make this happen."
O'Reilly's lawyer, Ronald Green, tells AP that he believes there are tapes of conversations between the two and asked a court to compel Mackris to produce them so they could be played publicly.

Mark 11:23- For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.

It was less than three weeks ago when we posted "Tesla Shorts Refuse To Cover Despite Suffering Massive Losses" in which we wrote that "Tesla shares rocketed higher on August 2, by almost $50, the day after the company reported its second-quarter results" and added that "despite the stock rising more than 15% immediately after the report, WSJ analytics showed that short sellers are standing their ground in the name despite an estimated $1.7 billion paper loss resulting from the violent move higher."
At the start of the month, and heading into Tesla earnings, there was about $10.5 billion in short interest according to S3 Partners. And as the below chart shows, Tesla has remained the most heavily shorted stock in the U.S. both before and after its report.
Of course, the pain for the shorts only spiked on August 7 when first the Saudi Sov. Wealth Fund announced a 5% stake, promptly followed by Musk tweeting his intention to take the company private at $420, which sent the stock just shy of its all time highs.
Still, the shorts refused to cover, because as the FT reported on Sunday, while the buyout plan pitched by Musk may have been nothing more than a way to "burn the shorts", something the SEC is now allegedly investigating, less than 4 per cent of the short positions have been closed since his tweet.
And in retrospect, good thing they did not because as the bizarre events in the subsequent days demonstrated, Musk's market manipulative tweet - it has since emerged that funding was not secured - may have been the catalyst to not only an SEC investigation, but the last nail of what has been one long, at times surreal emotional collapse for the Tesla CEO.
Following every twist and turn in the grotesque Elon Musk saga, Tesla stock reversed course and less than two weeks after Musk's tweet at the close on Friday, it traded 19% below their level before the tweet. Which, according to S3 Partners calculations, means that the mark-to-market value of the short positions is up $1.2bn over that period.
As S3 also adds, the Tesla short interest has risen to $11.2bn, which not only means that more than a quarter of the company’s free float is short, but that the short interest is even greater than when it was before Tesla's impressive earnings, the Saudi news and the Musk's going private announcement.
Making matters worse for the company's narrative, S3 said several short sellers have increased their bets on a Tesla share price decline, "suggesting they remain unconvinced by Mr Musk’s ambition to buy out some existing shareholders at a mooted price of $420 per share" according to the FT.
One could also say that they are betting that the stock will collapse even more now that the SEC is finally poking holes in the Musk story.
One of the persistent shorts is Crispin Odey, a world-renowned market bear, who has bet against Tesla, and who as we reported on Friday in a letter to investors last week said that while "shorts like Tesla have been difficult to hold on t... Tesla feels like it is entering the final stage of its life." He also compared Musk’s recent behavior to that of Donald Crowhurst, "the amateur sailor who set off in the 1960s on a solo voyage around the world and never came back."
Meanwhile, as investors and analysts continue to encourage Musk to shut up and spend less time on Twitter and focus on his company, Musk tweeted out (at 2:30am Pacific Time) that changing the way he works is not an option in response to an open letter by Arianna Huffington imploring the Tesla CEO to change his ways.
Ford & Tesla are the only 2 American car companies to avoid bankruptcy. I just got home from the factory. You think this is an option. It is not. — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) August 19, 2018
The tweets followed an emotional interview with the New York Times in which Musk acknowledged between "laughter and tears" that he was overworked and exhausted, saying his intense involvement at Tesla’s factory had taken a steep toll on his personal life and health. Yet even then, Musk did not fail to attack the shorts once again:
"They're not dumb guys, but they're not supersmart. They're OK. They're smartish."
Meanwhile, late on Sunday, another "smartish" player in the drama re-emerged, when Reuters reported that the Saudi PIF, or Sovereign Wealth Fund, which previously had taken a 5% stake in Tesla and was allegedly helping Musk to "secure funding", was in talks to invest in aspiring Tesla rival Lucid Motors.
PIF and Lucid Motors have drawn up a term sheet under which PIF could invest more than $1 billion in Lucid Motors and obtain majority ownership, the sources said. PIF’s first investment in Lucid Motors, however, would be for $500 million, and subsequent cash injections would come in two stages that are contingent on Lucid Motors hitting certain production milestones, one of the sources added.
According to Reuters, "a deal with Lucid Motors would also be more in line with PIF’s limited resources, given that, despite its $250 billion in assets, PIF has already made substantial commitments to other technology companies or investments, including a $45-billion agreement to invest in a giant technology fund led by Japan’s SoftBank Group Corp."
It would also be a confirmation that the fund, which as we reported previously is scrambling to raise capital in an odd, roundabout way that involves Aramco (which recently scrapped its plans to go public) and the state run petrochemical giant Sabic, will not invest in a Tesla deal but will instead spread out its funds across similarly themed investment ideas.
As a reminder, after Musk said that the funding for his going private deal was "secured," he later elaborated last Monday that he believed Saudi Arabia’s PIF could provide the necessary funding, although sources close to the sovereign wealth fund have since played down that prospect; today's new effectively kills any hope that PIF would participate in a Tesla buyout.
As for Lucid, not only is it a company that is far earlier in its development, thus allowing investors a far greater piece of the pie at this moment, but ironically, it was founded in 2007 by Bernard Tse, a former Tesla vice president and board member, and Sam Weng, a former exec at Oracle Corp and Redback Networks. It received backing from Chinese investors, including tech entrepreneur Jia Yueting and state-owned automaker BAIC. Other venture capital backers have included Venrock, Mitsui & Co and Tsing Capital.
Lucid Motors is not yet selling any cars. In 2016, it unveiled a prototype of its Lucid Air model, a $100,000 luxury sedan it had hoped to begin building in Arizona in late 2018. It is not clear when this car will become available, though the company - just like Tesla - is accepting refundable deposits of $2,500 from consumers on its website.
And back to Tesla, while it is far more advanced in its production process, it remains unclear when, if ever, it will become profitable. UBS analysts last week calculated that Tesla would lose $6,000 on every base Model 3 model. As a reminder, it is the baseline Model 3 that is seen as the company's entry into the mass market as opposed to the ultra-high end, where far more exciting and new offerings from the likes of Porsche and Jaguar are set to come to market soon, and grab market share from the increasingly troubled Tesla.

Education minister Adrian Piccoli. Credit:John Veage Mr Piccoli's federal Coalition colleague, Education Minister Simon Birmingham fired back at Mr Piccoli on Wednesday, accusing him of "ruthlessly preying on the fears of parents with vulnerable students to try and score political points". The boy, who Mr Piccoli referred to as Jake, has been suspended 11 times this year for his aggressive behaviour. "Jake's attendance has never been great at the best of times," Mr Piccoli told the audience of more than 500 primary NSW principals. "But these aren't the best of times for Jake. In the middle of last term a close relative of his was murdered, which led to five weeks off school. At seven he is already roaming the streets in bad company.
Education Minister Simon Birmingham. Credit:Louise Kennerley "On the plus side, dad's at home at the moment. He got out of jail recently and is the only person who can control his behaviour. " Mr Piccoli said Jake's school was in line to receive additional funding for frontline services that would allow teachers to guide his future. He said his work showed his potential. Premier Mike Baird introduced Education Minister Adrian Piccoli to an audience of primary school principals on Wednesday. Credit:John Veage "The writing Jake showed me had the sorts of things teachers look for, capital letters and full stops," said Mr Piccoli.
"His story was simple – but depressing. My dad gave me a heap of money, my mum bludged it off me to buy beer." Mr Piccoli said he would fight Mr Birmingham for continued funding to protect the future of students like Jake. "I am not going to stand by and let boys and girls like Jake be short-changed," he said. "The dollars are vital. The only chance the school has to work and to keep him on tasks so that other students have a chance to learn is to have an extra teacher in the room for at least the first couple of hours a day." On Wednesday, Mr Birmingham said the conversation had "sunk to a new low" and emphasised there were no cuts to school funding citing the federal government's growing investment in schools from about $16 billion in 2016 to $20.1 billion by 2020. "While there has been much chest beating from Minister Piccoli over the years, politicising a young and vulnerable child like this is something I won't enter into and I am sure Premier Baird would never engage in, nor condone such an approach."
Mr Baird introduced Mr Piccoli to the audience of principals on Wednesday. "[He will] have some words to say to our federal government," Mr Baird said. The final round of Gonski federal funding agreed to by Mr Birmingham and Mr Turnbull is due to finish next year. Negotiations between the states and the federal government reached a stalemate at a meeting of all the education ministers in September. While Mr Piccoli has called for Mr Turnbull to intervene, the Prime Minister has taken a role in negotiations and been seen publicly with Mr Birmingham at funding announcements over the past year. Mr Turnbull has been contacted for comment.
