Daniele created COLLECTIONS-859:
-----------------------------------
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
