There are two styles to convert a collection to an array: either using a pre-sized array (like c.toArray(new String[c.size()])) or using an empty array (like c.toArray(new String[0]).
In older Java versions using pre-sized array was recommended, as the reflection call which is necessary to create an array of proper size was quite slow. However since late updates of OpenJDK 6 this call was intrinsified, making the performance of the empty array version the same and sometimes even better, compared to the pre-sized version. Also passing pre-sized array is dangerous for a concurrent or synchronized collection as a data race is possible between the size and toArray call which may result in extra nulls at the end of the array, if the collection was concurrently shrunk during the operation.

'String.indexOf()' expression is replaceable with 'contains()'
Reports any String.indexOf() expressions which can be replaced with a call to the String.contains() method available in Java 5 and newer.

Reports for loops which iterate over collections or arrays, and can be replaced with an enhanced for loop (i.e. the foreach iteration syntax).

Some updates for 118754. The various places that were checking for 'MISSING' now call 'isMissing' if they can. I think this negates some work Adrian did with introducing MissingWithKnownSignature - but we have to make this change for LTW to work properly. Someone with a bit of time on their hands should go through all the places isMissing() is now called and see if the check should be 'isReallyMissing()' which would allow the MissingWithKnownSignature to get through. I will raise an enhancement to cover this.
