the validated numeric value

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if value was negative

checkArgumentNonnegative

public static long checkArgumentNonnegative(long value,
                                            java.lang.String errorMessage)

Ensures that that the argument numeric value is positive.

Parameters:

value - a numeric int value

errorMessage - the exception message to use if the check fails

Returns:

the validated numeric value

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if value was not positive

checkArgumentFinite

                                        java.lang.String valueName)

Ensures that the argument floating point value is a finite number.

A finite number is defined to be both representable (that is, not NaN) and not infinite (that is neither positive or negative infinity).

Parameters:

value - a floating point value

valueName - the name of the argument to use if the check fails

Returns:

the validated floating point value

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if value was not finite

checkArgumentInRange

public static float checkArgumentInRange(float value,
                                         float lower,
                                         float upper,
                                         java.lang.String valueName)
