Viraj Turakhia commented on LANG-458:
-------------------------------------
By the way, I still think we should call notXXX(Object o, String message) from
notXXX(Object o) with hard coded message to reduce code duplication.
I will submit a patch for the same (which will be subset of what I have already
sent).
> Add methods to return boolean from Validate.java instead of throwing
> IllegalArgumentException

> I am using Validate.java since long and find it difficult to use when I just
> want to validate collections or string.
> With current interface, I go like this:
> while(cnt < list.size()) {
> List list1 = list.get(cnt);
> try {
> Validate.notEmpty(list1);
> } catch(IllegalArgumentException e) {
> continue;
> }
> }
> much better approach is:
> while(cnt < list.size()) {
> List list1 = list.get(cnt);
> try {
> if(! Validate.notEmpty(list1)) {
> continue;
> }
> }
> If you all agree with this change, I am willing to submit a patch for this.
