Description Kathy Carroll CLA 2011-08-09 09:56:46 EDT 
Expecting a null value when I use the ?: operator with a null string

EGL code:

program tester type BasicProgram {}

	function main()
		nullStr string? = null;
		valueStr string = "Red bull";
		resultStr string? = nullStr ?: valueStr;
		if (resultStr == null )
			syslib.writeStdOut("?: successful");
		else
			syslib.writeStdOut(":? failure");
		end		
	end
	
end
