Adrian Crum commented on LANG-618:
----------------------------------
If I use the wrapper method, then I end up with this:
Assert.argumentsNotNull("Argument \"foo\" cannot be null.", foo, "Argument
\"bar\" cannot be null.", bar, ...);
and I still get a NullPointerException instead of an IllegalArgumentException.
The bottom line is, I would be trying to use Validate for something it wasn't
designed for. It just isn't a good fit.
The idea behind Assert was to make argument checking convenient - so that it
will be done more often, and to make the exceptions it throws meaningful to
developers.
> Add an Assert class to simplify programming.
