Add Matchers.empty(), Matchers,hasSize() for Maps too. about javahamcrest

[npathai]

We already have this feature just with a slightly different name
assertThat(map, anEmptyMap()); for checking emptiness and
assertThat(map, aMapWithSize(2)); for checking the size.

What about IsMapWithSize.anEmptyMap() and IsMapWithSize.aMapWithSize()? That do exactly what you want. See #34

[mattbishop]

You're right they do work. This issue is to put methods on the Matchers class itself. Most people don't know to look further than the Matchers class' static methods.

@mattbishop I think the static methods contained inside the Matchers class are automatically created: factory methods annotated with @Factory inside the Matcher classes like IsMapWithSize are "copied" over there, cf. http://github.com/hamcrest/JavaHamcrest/blob/master/hamcrest-generator/src/main/java/org/hamcrest/generator/config/XmlConfigurator.java and the generate-module-factory calls in https://github.com/hamcrest/JavaHamcrest/blob/master/build.xml

Both methods were marked with @Factory since they were introduced in 749ef4b; there's nothing else to fix here.

I think this issue should be closed.
