Returns the first of two given parameters that is not null, if either is, or otherwise throws a NullPointerException.

To find the first non-null element in an iterable, use Iterables.find(iterable, Predicates.notNull()). For varargs, use Iterables.find(Arrays.asList(a, b, c, ...), Predicates.notNull()), static importing as necessary.

Note: if first is represented as an Optional, this can be accomplished with first.or(second). That approach also allows for lazy evaluation of the fallback instance, using first.or(supplier).

Throws:
Returns:first if it is non-null; otherwise second if it is non-null

Creates an instance of ToStringHelper.

This is helpful for implementing Object.toString(). Specification by example:


// Returns "ClassName{}"
MoreObjects.toStringHelper(this)
    .toString();
// Returns "ClassName{x=1}"
MoreObjects.toStringHelper(this)
    .add("x", 1)
    .toString();
// Returns "MyObject{x=1}"
MoreObjects.toStringHelper("MyObject")
    .add("x", 1)
    .toString();
// Returns "ClassName{x=1, y=foo}"
MoreObjects.toStringHelper(this)
    .add("x", 1)
    .add("y", "foo")
    .toString();
// Returns "ClassName{x=1}"
MoreObjects.toStringHelper(this)
    .omitNullValues()
    .add("x", 1)
    .add("y", null)
    .toString();

Note that in GWT, class names are often obfuscated.

Params:
  • self – the object to generate the string for (typically this), used only for its class name

Returns a string in the format specified by MoreObjects.toStringHelper(Object).

After calling this method, you can keep adding more properties to later call toString() again and get a more complete representation of the same object; but properties cannot be removed, so this only allows limited reuse of the helper instance. The helper allows duplication of properties (multiple name/value pairs with the same name can be added).
