Description

ArrayHandler#handle returns null if there are no rows.

However ArrayListHandler#handle returns an empty list, as do all the other implementations that return a collection.

It would be more consistent if ArrayHandler#handle returned an empty array.

Note: for implementations of ResultSetHandler that return a single object, rather than an array or collection, returning null does make sense.
