Does QMenu::addAction return 0 pointer?

Paul Busovikov

subj

is that code safe?

QAction* a = menu->addAction( "some action" );
a->doSomething();

should I check it before or it is unnecessary?

if ( a ) a->doSomething();

or the same about addMenu

I haven't found mentions about it on http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qmenu.html
only about actionAt which does return 0

It is unnecessary.

Only in case of out of memory, it could in theory return null but might assert and close
anyway. So would be waste to check as in 99% of all cases it will be added.
