Leon commented on OFBIZ-4393:
-----------------------------
It has been able to handle null before.
According to original design (I guess), if ommit value and relFieldName
attributes in condition-expr, then it will be looked as "null". Then, while the
operator is "=" or "<>", the condition will be converted to "is null" and "is
not null" respectively. See code pasted below:
{code:java}
} else if ( value == null && this.relFieldName == null &&
(this.operator == EntityOperator.EQUALS || this.operator ==
EntityOperator.NOT_EQUAL)) {
return EntityCondition.makeCondition(lhs, this.operator, null);
} else {
{code}
But donno from which revision, the input value of absent value and relFeidlName
attributes were converted to empty string (""), not "null" itself, then, now,
"view entity condition-expr doesn't handle null".

> An absent value attribute is read as an empty string, and the code currently
> checks for value being null to know when to compare against null.
