no because var could be a pointer for example...
You mean because in that case it would be '!= NULL', do you? Sorry,
do not see your point here.
my point is that you don't know which one to use..
Sorry to be a bother, but why is that relevant? Except semantics, they
are the same, right? So what problem would it be if you send it a
pointer? The '!' uses the same "argument/reason" when given a pointer ;).
But this isn't new discussion (nor something I'm changing at all); this has come
up since way back in 2005 :)
If you feel strongly of changing this, feel free to post a patch; for now I much
rather leave things as they are right now.
Oh o-well, in such case I may come back and do a larger patching
someday. Just though since you were in the neighborhood...
Have a good evening
