What's the reasoning for allowing this?
The mistake is immediately obvious when you run the program, so
I just don't see it as a big deal. You lose a matter of
seconds, realize the mistake, and fix it.
What is your proposal for handling it? The ones usually put
around are kinda a pain to use.
How hard would it be, really, for the compiler to determine that
c was never assigned to, and produce a compile time error:
"c is never assigned to, and will always have its default value
null"
That doesn't sound that hard to me.
