/**
 * Static convenience methods that serve the same purpose as Java language
 * 
 * assertions, except that they are always enabled. These methods should be used instead of Java
 * assertions whenever there is a chance the check may fail "in real life". Example: 
   {@code
 *
 *   Bill bill = remoteService.getLastUnpaidBill();
 *
 *   // In case bug 12345 happens again we'd rather just die
 *   Verify.verify(bill.status() == Status.UNPAID,
 *       "Unexpected bill status: %s", bill.status());}
* *

Comparison to alternatives

* *

Note: In some cases the differences explained below can be subtle. When it's unclear * which approach to use, don't worry too much about it; just pick something that seems * reasonable and it will be fine. * *

    *
  • If checking whether the caller has violated your method or constructor's contract * (such as by passing an invalid argument), use the utilities of the {@link Preconditions} * class instead. * *
  • If checking an impossible condition (which cannot happen unless your own class * or its trusted dependencies is badly broken), this is what ordinary Java assertions * are for. Note that assertions are not enabled by default; they are essentially considered * "compiled comments." * *
  • An explicit {@code if/throw} (as illustrated below) is always acceptable; we still recommend * using our {@link VerifyException} exception type. Throwing a plain {@link RuntimeException} * is frowned upon. * *
  • Use of {@link java.util.Objects#requireNonNull(Object)} is generally discouraged, since * {@link #verifyNotNull(Object)} and {@link Preconditions#checkNotNull(Object)} perform the * same function with more clarity. *
* *

Warning about performance

* *

Remember that parameter values for message construction must all be computed eagerly, and * autoboxing and varargs array creation may happen as well, even when the verification succeeds and * the message ends up unneeded. Performance-sensitive verification checks should continue to use * usual form:

   {@code
 *
 *   Bill bill = remoteService.getLastUnpaidBill();
 *   if (bill.status() != Status.UNPAID) {
 *     throw new VerifyException("Unexpected bill status: " + bill.status());
 *   }}
* *

Only {@code %s} is supported

* *

As with {@link Preconditions} error message template strings, only the {@code "%s"} specifier * is supported, not the full range of {@link java.util.Formatter} specifiers. However, note that if * the number of arguments does not match the number of occurrences of {@code "%s"} in the format * string, {@code Verify} will still behave as expected, and will still include all argument values * in the error message; the message will simply not be formatted exactly as intended. * *
