Went to look at em, and pine is not happy with the attachments at all.
One it refuses to open [something illegal in the encoding] and the other
is empty. So not sure what happened to me there.
Could you summarise the methods inline?
I assume:
public String defaultString(Object o) {
return defaultString(o, "");
}
public String defaultString(Object o, String s) {
return (o == null)? s : o.toString();
}
????
As to where it lives. Am unsure. Is a Utils based on what goes in or what
goes out.. Should this really go in a ConvertUtils [it'd get lost I
think].
I would think that the current StringUtils.defaultString(String,String)
should simply be changed to be more generic. As we've released, moving it
to ObjectUtils seems unneeded and bad, there's justification for it to go
either way.
Renaming defaultString to defaultIfNull, or defaultStringIfNull or
changing ObjectUtils.defaultIfNull to defaultObject would be nice in
hindsight, but I is it worth throwing deprecations around? Probably not :)
Of course, I could be making assumptions on what's in the patch.
