Class Arguments

java.lang.Object
  de.smartics.util.lang.Arguments

Deprecated. Due to a breaking change a new class called Arg has been designed to be used from now on. It has the same methods as this one, but it returns the value passed in to check. This allows to do the check and an initialization (e.g. in a constructor) in one line. It also allows to check arguments if another constructor is called (such as in this() and super()). This class is planned to be removed with the release of version 2.0.
