default initializers for aggregate types should be null, not default constructor #40

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Crack originally took the C++ approach on default initializers:

  A a;

In the definition above, "a" is initialized with the default constructor, 
making it equivalent to:

  A a = {};

As it turns out, in most of the cases in the current code where we do default 
initialization of objects, we want to initialize to null.  We should accomodate 
the most common case and use null as an initializer.
