             Summary: Ambiguity in the javadoc
                 Key: COLLECTIONS-859
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COLLECTIONS-859
             Project: Commons Collections
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Daniele


I found some ambiguities in the javadoc regarding the behavior of some methods:

{*}PredicateUtils.nullIsExceptionPredicate(Predicate<? super T>):{*}{*}{*}

When it says "return the predicate"  doesn't mean return the predicate 
parameter (args[0]), but return a new predicate that checks if the input is 
null and, if so, throws an exception, otherwise, delegates the evaluation to 
predicate (args[0]).

*PredicateUtils.nullIsFalsePredicate(Predicate<? super T>):*

When it says "return the predicate"  doesn't mean return the predicate 
parameter (args[0]), but return a new predicate that checks if the input is 
null and, if so, return false, otherwise, delegates the evaluation to predicate 
(args[0]).

*PredicateUtils.nullIsTruePredicate(Predicate<? super T>):*

W{*}{*}hen it says "return the predicate"  doesn't mean return the predicate 
parameter (args[0]), but return a new predicate that checks if the input is 
null and, if so, return true, otherwise, delegates the evaluation to predicate 
(args[0]).

*PredicateUtils.transformedPredicate(Transformer<? super T, ? extends T>, 
Predicate<? super T>):*

When it says "return the predicate"  doesn't mean return the predicate 
parameter (args[0]), but return a new predicate that create a predicate that 
transforms the input object before passing it to the predicate
