Comparators.comparing doesn't handle nulls

[Henry Jen]

Would you be more specific?

Comparators.comparing is not taking null as arguments. As how the returned Comparator compare nulls is really depends on Comparator itself. The Comparable style comparator won't handle null as Comparable doesn't support null.
