Issue description

Image or another case Image

Choose one or more from the following categories of impact

  • Unexpected nullness warning (false positive in nullness checking, code uses --checknulls and langversion:preview).
  • Missing nullness warning in a case which can produce nulls (false negative, code uses --checknulls and langversion:preview).
  • Breaking change related to older null constructs in code not using the checknulls switch.
  • Breaking change related to generic code and explicit type constraints (null, not null).
  • Type inference issue (i.e. code worked without type annotations before, and applying the --checknulls enforces type annotations).
  • C#/F# interop issue related to nullness metadata.
  • Other (none of the categories above apply).
