Why NotEmpty() does not check if value for Guid type is default(Guid)?

[pawepaw]

Hello,

I'm a bit confused. Why NotEmpty() rule does not check if Guid argument is equal to default(Guid) and return that it's not valid?

Documentation says:
Description: Ensures that the specified property is not null, an empty string or whitespace (or the default value for value types, eg 0 for int)

Since Guid is value type it should follow that rule. Am I missing something?

NotEmpty does check if a Guid is equal to default(Guid). Is this not the behaviour you're seeing?

[Fact]
public void Guid_test() {
  var validator = new TestModel2Validator();

  var result = validator.Validate(new TestModel2 {
    SomeId = default(Guid)
  });

  Assert.False(result.IsValid);
}

public class TestModel2Validator : AbstractValidator<TestModel2> {
	public TestModel2Validator() {
		RuleFor(x => x.SomeId).NotEmpty();
	}
}

public class TestModel2 {	
	public Guid SomeId { get; set; }
}

yeah you are right. It was nullable guid... I'm blind sorry and thanks for reply.
Probably it's time to go home.

Ah great, glad you found it. Going home sounds good to me!
