> I am using Validate.java since long and find it difficult to use when I just want to validate collections or string.
> With current interface, I go like this:
> while(cnt < list.size()) {
>     List list1 = list.get(cnt);
>     try {
>         Validate.notEmpty(list1);
>     } catch(IllegalArgumentException e) {
>         continue;
>     }
> }
> much better approach is:
> while(cnt < list.size()) {
>     List list1 = list.get(cnt);
>     try {
>     if(! Validate.notEmpty(list1)) {
>         continue;
>     }
> }
> If you all agree with this change, I am willing to submit a patch for this.
