Enable nullable reference types #277
Conversation
The `as` operator has been changed to pattern matching to avoid null checks entirely.
Unconstrained generics make a `!` necessary.
This poses a bit of a problem in the StyledAtom ctor in that an Atom? is eventually passed to RowAtom(source, elements), where elements is supposed to not contain null values at all.
There's a few problems that stem from other parts of the code, e.g. ExtensionChar.Repeat being nullable, but used in CharBox, or OverUnderBox using a nullable ScriptBox as if it were not null.
OK, I do see build failures on my end as well, but seemingly only for net452: Seems like the Nullable NuGet package doesn't seem to work as expected.
The build seems to work for netcoreapp3.0, which results in the compiled assembly. Subsequent builds in VS (Ctrl+Shift+B) then tell me "Build successful", as the build system apparently thinks all artifacts are there. |
Apparently this is the problem: manuelroemer/Nullable#11 I guess I'll probably go with conditional compilation for the respective lines and we'll miss a bit nullability fidelity in net452. |

Hell of a work you did here, thanks a lot! I've reviewed every single change, and left some comments.
I've decided to move some of the remaining work (see the TODOs I've added to the initial post) to a new issue though.

Thanks for your work!
Well, thanks for giving me an opportunity to try such a migration. Still planning to do so at work, albeit on a larger, more confusing code base where the only benefit is that I know it fairly well :-) And I fear the amount of left over todos is probably normal for old code. |
Long list of commits, but perhaps that makes reviewing a bit easier, as the changes are somewhat scoped.

and the build succeeds and the example still runs.There have been a few problematic places, though, that have been annotated with comments, and sometimes pointed out in the commit message. Most of those have been silenced for now with a somewhat minimal set of
