Why is err not nil when a is? Our theory is that err is a pointer to a nil pointer so technically not nil. We would have assumed that a pointer to a nil pointer would be nil though. Why is that that not the case? By the way, we don't need help with this. We found a workaround and are satisfied with that. Just looking for details on why this is the case for our own knowledge as it tripped us up for a while. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
