The of method should check if all elements are null, and if so to return
the NULL singleton. This would reduce the number of objects created and
garbage collected.

So long as ImmutablePair and ImmutableTriple classes are final (not
subclassable), then identity checking could be used in place of equality
checking when comparing against a null tuple. This would be marginally
faster.

Any preference of being explicit (redundant) here?
ImmutablePair.NULL_PAIR and ImmutableTriple.NULL_TRIPLE

Hi All,

Any thoughts for or against adding the following to ImmutablePair:


    /**
     * An immutable pair of nulls.
     */
    // This is not defined with generics to avoid warnings in call sites.
    @SuppressWarnings("rawtypes")
    public static final ImmutablePair NULL = ImmutablePair.of(null, null);

Same for ImmutableTriple.

?

Thank you,
Gary
