Hi, I saw the following pattern repeated in the Oak codebase:
checkArgument(foo instanceOf IFoo); IFoo iFoo = (IFoo) foo; I am not sure that the value of the checkArgument call is. If it fails, the root cause will be an IllegalArgumentException with no message. On the other hand, if we let the ClassCastException happen, it will have an explicit message such as com.foo.NotFoo cannot be cast to com.foo.IFoo Is there a specific reason for this pattern? Thanks, Robert
