[Vala] Check if pointer is null

[Frederik <scumm_fredo gmx net>]

How do I check if a pointer is null?

	pointer my_pointer = null;
	if (null == my_pointer) {
		GLib.print("pointer is null\n");
	}

gets translated to:

	gpointer my_pointer;
	my_pointer = NULL;
	if (NULL == &my_pointer) {
		g_print ("pointer is null\n");
	}

which is not what I intended.


Thanks
