Benedikt Ritter commented on LANG-1093:
---------------------------------------
Hello Fabian,
bq. On the other hand I thought, if its inspired by the quirky API, then I
could keep also that edge case?
Now is our chance to resolve the quirkiness ;-) If a user only wants the class
name without any package information, she can use {{getShortClassName}}. So
{{len <= 0 -> IAE}}?
bq. The null cause is "covered" the same way as the other methds do it by
saying "or an empty string" for return.
Yes, and I agree with that behavior. I only would like to see this case show up
in the JavaDoc table of examples.

> It would be really nice to have a class name shortener functionality
> available similar to what some logger frameworks use.
> I took the idea for my implementation from logback, including the quirky
> treatment of the desired length argument, feel free to discuss on the PR/here.
