Quoting from the Javadoc of IllegalArgumentException: "Thrown to indicate that a method has been passed an illegal or inappropriate argument." In other words, throwing an IAE is perfectly alright, there is no condition on how to detect the fact, that is the argument is illegal, or inappropriate. I conclude, that this patch adds nothing to the existing code, at the cost of changing method signatures. I will not merge it. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
