[lang] Validate patch

[Michael Lanzetta <mi...@hotmail.com>]

I've added an isInstanceOf method to the validate class, as well as appropriate tests in ValidateTest.  The patch is attached.  It was created using WinCVS 1.2, from the directory jakarta-commons/lang.  I've tested the new functionality from both Eclipse and the Ant build.

Please let me know if I've submitted the patch inappropriately, or even if there's just a "more preferred" method - this is my first patch to Jakarta.

Regards,
Mike Lanzetta

Submitting patches as enhancements in Bugzilla is usually the preferred 
way -- that way there's a permanent record of the patch and it can't get 
lost.  Patches posted to the mailing list are often missed.
