[jira] [Commented] (LANG-694) ObjectUtils.defaultIfNotNull

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-694?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13022161#comment-13022161 ] 

Matt Benson commented on LANG-694:
----------------------------------

or:
{{return object1 == null ? null : anotherObject;}}

I must say this request doesn't really make that much sense to me.

> Currently there is a defaultIfNull method in ObjectUtils, which is a great one, but it will be nice to have an additional method called defaultIfNotNull which returns null if the first parameter is null or the second parameter if the object is not null. 
> ObjectUtils.defaultIfNotNull(object1, anotherObject);
> For the moment I have to perform a null comparison on my own,e.g., 
> if (object1 == null) {
> return null;
> }
> return anotherObject;
