true if the given object is not null and is an array, otherwise false.

isNullOrEmpty

public static <T> boolean isNullOrEmpty(T[] array)

Indicates whether the given array is null or empty.

Type Parameters:

T - the type of elements of the array.

array

public static <T> T[] array(T... values)

Returns an array containing the given arguments.

Type Parameters:

T - the type of the array to return.

Parameters:

values - the values to store in the array.

Returns:

an array containing the given arguments.

format

public static String format(Representation representation,
                            Object array)

Returns the String representation of the given array, or null if the given object is either null or not an array. This method supports arrays having other arrays as elements.

Parameters:

representation -

array - the object that is expected to be an array.

the String standard representation of the given array.

nonNullElementsIn

public static <T> List<T> nonNullElementsIn(T[] array)

Returns all the non-null elements in the given array.

Type Parameters:

T - the type of elements of the array.

Parameters:

array - the given array.

Returns:

all the non-null elements in the given array. An empty list is returned if the given array is null.

Since:

1.1.3

hasOnlyNullElements

public static <T> boolean hasOnlyNullElements(T[] array)

Returns true if the given array has only null elements, false otherwise. If given array is empty, this method returns true.

Type Parameters:

T - the type of elements of the array.

Parameters:

array - the given array. It must not be null.
