Is intent to *check* or *set* assertions?

[Joel Buckley]

Hi Graal-dev,

In Substrate-Util.java[1], is the intent to *check* and/or *set* assertions to *true*?


    /**
     * Checks whether assertions are enabled in the VM.
     *
     * @return true if assertions are enabled.
     */
    @SuppressWarnings("all")
    public static boolean assertionsEnabled() {
        boolean assertionsEnabled = false;
        assert assertionsEnabled = true; // should this be “== true”?
        return assertionsEnabled; // Otherwise, this is always true...
    }


Thanks,
Joel.
