Without any nullability annotations, compiling this code

public static String foo(String x) {
    return x.isEmpty() ? null : null;
}

gives an error

An exception has occurred in the compiler (22.0.2). Please file a bug against the Java compiler via the Java bug reporting page (https://bugreport.java.com) after checking the Bug Database (https://bugs.java.com) for duplicates. Include your program, the following diagnostic, and the parameters passed to the Java compiler in your report. Thank you.
com.google.common.util.concurrent.ExecutionError: java.lang.AssertionError: unexpected type: <nulltype>

The code compiles fine when either of the operands is not null - x.isEmpty() ? "null" : null or x.isEmpty() ? null : "null".

Similar error can be observed when the expression is inside a lambda function:

Function<String, String> f = x -> x.isEmpty() ? null : null;

This is an upstream issue in Checker Framework: typetools/checker-framework#6743 We will need a fix there and then we can pull in the release with the fix.

I presume this is not hard for you to work around @gavlyukovskiy?

Thank you for checking @msridhar. The code is pretty much nonsensical, and it is certainly very easy to workaround, just thought that it's worth it to report 🙂

Fixed by typetools/checker-framework#6752. We'll get the fix when it reaches a Checker Framework release and we update.
