Hello, today I stumbled upon this page:
http://confluence.jetbrains.net/display/Kotlin/Null-safety
There's so-called 'safe call operator' in Kotlin programming language
which, when used in chains, resembles 'Maybe' monad from Haskell. Thus it
makes easier to work with nullable types in some
Do you know the reason why it was rejected? I searched for more information
but could only find the proposals, not the rejection.
A null-safe operator (an elvis operator) seems like a natural complement to
the nullable operator already in Vala.

As a starter, Java rejected that syntax.
Yeah, but in Java at least a NullPointerException is thrown when null
dereferencing occurs. In Vala the only option to provide null-safety
is explicit checking for null after each method call in a chain.
