Problem
keywords: assemblyscript, equality, string checks, string comparison, null check, ==, ===, !=, !==
In previous versions of graph-ts, we were able to perform null checks using ==. But now, in the latest versions, we are forced to use === (otherwise, we get all sorts of errors at build time).
I wouldn't have a problem with using ===, but we are also forced to use == for string comparisons.
This is a super error-prone design where the maintainers have to remember to use slightly different operators for different types.
Solution
Upgrade to AssemblyScript v0.20, in which the === operator no longer checks for strict object equality.
AssemblyScript/assemblyscript#621
