MarkDacek edited a comment on issue #398: Add ComparableUtils URL: https://github.com/apache/commons-lang/pull/398#issuecomment-460823621 Sorry, was on vacation for a bit. The compareTo method is defined by each class. Not everything will check for nulls, though I would assume most JRE classes would. I might think that this idea is better accomplished using static methods and building in null-checks. `new ComparableCheckBuilder(a).greaterThan(b)` doesn't seem worthwhile when `a.compareTo(b) > 0` is a less-expensive operation. Something like `ComparableUtils.greaterThan(a,b)` might be better, though I'm still unsure of its usefulness.
