I'm working through Ben's great blog post about playing with libclang and I am puzzled by something.

invalidateSessionData
   handle atAllPut: 0. 

zero;s out the handle.  Cool.  However, 

handle isNull 

does not return true despite it being used in the getString method as 

^ handle isNull
         ifTrue: ['external memory invalidated by session restart']
         ifFalse:[LibClang clang_getCString__cxString: self].

Looks like there should be an isNull on ByteArray that returns true if all bytes are zero but it isn't  there.  Was it dropped for some reason?

Sure the documentation could be better, that is definetly important, but is already good enough and UFFI is a very technical subject much more suited to a mailing list . Its not physical possible to cover the massive potential of UFFI.

Luc told me that he wants to do a pass on it and Esteban promises that to me
but he is super busy.
