Which loop do you prefer. The above one or the following?

     private void skipIdentifier() {
         char c;
         while (!((c = current()) == ';' || c == '.' || c == '/' ||
                  c == '[' || c == ':' || c == '>' || c == '<' ||
                  Character.isWhitespace(c))) {
             advance();
         }
     }
