Class NullArgumentException

Object

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class NullArgumentException
extends NullPointerException

Throws when a null argument has been given to a method that doesn't accept them. This exception extends NullPointerException in order to stress out that the error is an illegal argument rather than an unexpected usage of a null pointer inside a method body.

Note: We could argue that this exception should extend IllegalArgumentException. However NullPointerException has become a more widely adopted practice and is now the recommended one in the Effective Java book.
