b4x-de Active Member Licensed User Longtime User Feb 10, 2025 #23 Thanks, I am aware of the Not operator. But if we try to make things easier, we might consider the common use cases first.

That is indeed the case. IsNotInitialized does make sense. Similar to SQL IsNull. I did prefer IsInitialized as it is a bit simpler to grasp as we can end with double negation with IsNotInitialized: Code: If IsNotInitialized(Button1) = False Then Button.Text = "abc" 'or If Not(IsNotInitialized(Button1)) Then ... But we will need to get used to this

Daestrum Expert Licensed User Longtime User Feb 10, 2025 #27 But surely you would just use 'Else' if it was Initialised.
udg Expert Licensed User Longtime User Feb 10, 2025 #28 Sure. I was just pointing out a possible ugly syntax. Anyway I'm sure Erel will choose the form he believes will be easier and better for us. We will learn how best to use it ( knowing it'll be not mandatory) as we did in the past with other language innovations.

S Spavlyuk Active Member Licensed User Longtime User Feb 11, 2025 #31 What about making it similar to the C# is null syntax? Could avoid all the useless parentheses. B4X: If Variable Is Initialized Then Return If Variable Is Not Initialized Then Return

MrKim Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Apr 30, 2025 #32 Interesting. I had a boolean variable called Initialized and the latest version of b4j didn't like it so I changed it to IsInitialized and it works fine But Maybe I should change it again.
