Thiago Andrade commented on LANG-1008:
--------------------------------------
[~dmjones500] I think that throwing a NullPointerException still is the correct
way of verify arguments. Please read this: [Unchecked Exceptions — The
Controversy|http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/essential/exceptions/runtime.html]
??One case where it is common practice to throw a RuntimeException is when the
user calls a method incorrectly. For example, a method can check if one of its
arguments is incorrectly null. If an argument is null, the method might throw a
NullPointerException, which is an unchecked exception.??
