Paul Benedict commented on LANG-508:
------------------------------------
If we want to implement LANG-508 (Validate: add message parameter construction
via elllipsis notation to speed up processing), I am really concerned with the
many overloaded versions of #validIndex() and #notEmpty() that solely differ by
static argument type: Collection, Object, Object[], CharSequence, etc.
Because var-args instantiate a new Object[], it won't be possible to easily
create one-argument optimized overloaded versions to prevent the creation. Such
as:
public static <T> T[] notEmpty(Object array, String message, Object var1);
public static <T> T[] notEmpty(Object array, String message, Object var1,
Object var2);
public static <T> T[] notEmpty(Object array, String message, Object var1,
Object var2, Object var3);
public static <T> T[] notEmpty(Object array, String message, Object var1,
Object var2, Object var3, Object... vars);
I am following the good advice on Joshua Bloch on this one. It's item #42 in
his Effective Java book.
I want to eliminate the overloaded versions by type and check those types using
instanceof instead. Thoughts?

> Key: LANG-508
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-508
> Project: Commons Lang
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 2.4
> Reporter: Mark Struberg
> Fix For: 3.0
>
> Attachments: LANG-508.patch
>
>
> Currently passing verbose message strings to a log of commons.lang.Validate
> functions costs a lot of performance.
> A typical usecase currently is:
> {noformat}
> Validate.isTrue (argInt1.intValue > argInt2.intValue, "param2 actually is " +
> argInt2 + " but must larger than param1 " + argInt1 +" !");
> {noformat}
> So all the string operations get executed regardless if the validation fails
> or not.
> This can be made perform much better by moving all the string operations
> inside the respective validation function and execute it only if the
> validation fails:
> {noformat}
> Validate.isTrue(argInt1.intValue > argInt2.intValue, "param2 actually is {1}
> but must larger than param1 {0} !", argInt1, argInt2);
> {noformat}
