Created attachment 140943 [details] NetBeans screenshot This code raises the "dereferencing null pointer" warning on line 2: Object o = null; assert o == null : o.toString(); If I'm not wrong, the "o.toString()" should be called only if the assertion is false, i.e. if o != null. Is this correct? Thanks!
