 Seconding this. nullptr also has much better compatibility with varargs than 
 0.

Yeah, with nullptr we don't need the coding style exceptions for C API
using NULL as a sentinel.

[webkit-dev] Guideline for nullptr

2014-01-06 Thread Darin Adler
I suggest we use nullptr, rather than of 0 or NULL, for all pointer nulls in 
WebKit C++ sources. I don’t see any advantage to using 0 or NULL over nullptr, 
and nullptr has multiple advantages. Three obvious ones: Compile time error if 
accidentally passed to something expecting an integer, can be distinguished 
from an integer in function overloading, can tell it’s a pointer.

Any objections?

— Darin

PS: Maybe even instead of nil in WebKit Objective-C++ code?

In Objective-C++, nil is nullptr, so I suggest that we stick with the language 
convention of writing it as nil.

I think this is a great idea and something I’ve been doing ever since nullptr 
became available to us.

I agree. (Also, using Nil for null classes).

Sounds like a great idea to me.
