Builtins::null(3) Checks if a foreign pointer is NULL

SYNOPSIS

Bool null( Ptr p )

ARGUMENTS

p The foreign Ptr to check.

DESCRIPTION

Returns true if the foreign pointer is NULL. This is useful in testing whether a foreign function returns something valid, before throwing an exception. This is the only way, in general, that Ptr should be queried in Kaya; usually it is better to manipulate pointers C side.
