A DRY guard clause library designed to provide simple, readable guard clauses. Inspired by this question on StackOverflow.
var test = string.Empty;
Claws.NotNullNotBlank(() => test);
Will throw:
GuardClaws.Exceptions.VariableMustNotBeBlankException was unhandled
Message="Variable must not be blank./n/nDelinquent: test"
Source="guard_claws"
NameOfDelinquent="test"
guard_claws uses code from the Lokad Shared Libraries to gain access to the name of the parameter without having to resort to expressions and the runtime costs compiling them incurs.
