["Stardust (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Stardust created LANG-1134:
------------------------------

             Summary: New methods for lang3.Validate
                 Key: LANG-1134
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-1134
             Project: Commons Lang
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: lang.*
    Affects Versions: 3.4
            Reporter: Stardust
            Priority: Minor


These are suggestions for new methods for the Validate class.

h1. Floating point values

h2. notNaN(value)
Throws an exception if value != value .

{code}double value;

value = Double.NaN;
Validate.notNaN(value);    // Throws exception

value = 1.0;
Validate.notNaN(value);    // Validates

value = Double.POSITIVE_INFINITY;
Validate.notNaN(value);    // Validates{code}

h2. finite(value)
Validates that the argument contains a numeric value (not NaN or infinite).

{code}double value;

value = Double.NaN;
Validate.notNaN(value);    // Throws exception

value = Double.POSITIVE_INFINITY;
Validate.notNaN(value);    // Throws exception

value = 1.0;
Validate.notNaN(value);    // Validates{code}

h1. Integers and floats
The following methods are overloaded to accept both integers and floating point values.

h2. greater(reference, value), greaterOrEqual(reference, value)
Ensures the argument is greater than (or equal to) a given value.

{code}double value;

value = 0.0;
Validate.greater(0.0, value);    // Throws exception
Validate.greaterOrEqual(0.0, value); // Validates

value = Double.POSITIVE_INFINITY;
Validate.greater(0.0, value);    // Validates

value = Double.NaN;
Validate.greater(0.0, value);    // Throws exception{code}

h2. smaller(reference, value), smallerOrEqual(reference, value)
Ensures the argument is smaller than (or equal to) a given value. Does the opposite of greater(), see example above.

h2. different(reference, value)
Ensures the argument is not equal to a given value. A typical use case would be to accept only non-zero values.

{code}double value;

value = 0.0;
different(0.0, value);    // Throws exception
different(1.0, value);    // Validates

value = Double.NaN;
different(0.0, value);    // Validates{code}
