Matt Benson updated LANG-753:
-----------------------------
Issue Type: Improvement (was: Bug)
It's a documentation issue. If you need an {{IllegalArgumentException}} you
can use some variant of {{Validate.isTrue(arg != null)}}. As Erhan pointed out
early on, the behavior cannot be changed for [lang] v3.x without introducing
worse BC issues than what you've experienced upgrading from v2.x (bearing in
mind that the package change was an intentional break for just this reason).
> Validate.notNull() should throw IllegalArgumentException but throws
> NullPointerException

> Key: LANG-753
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-753
> Project: Commons Lang
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: lang.*
> Affects Versions: 3.0, 3.0.1, 3.1
> Reporter: Oliver Siegmar
>
> Validate.notNull() throws an IllegalArgumentException in commons-lang 2.6,
> but in 3.0.1 it throws a NullPointerException. I can't find any note about
> this in the release notes. I think this is a regression, because it could
> break others code.
