Due to disabled null detection, we have to explicitly cast NULL to a type of an actual value, i.e. instead of nice and clear 'ASSERT_EQ(NULL, myPointer)’ we have to write ‘ASSERT_EQ((MyClass*) NULL, myPointer)’. Reviewing 8165433[1], we came to the conclusion that ASSERT_EQ(NULL, myPointer) is what we really want. W/O this patch, the latest version of 8165433[2] fails during build on solaris.
