Enablie a lint rule to require === and !== instead of == and !=
except in some well-defined cases:

  • comparing against null as a shorthand for also checking for
    undefined
  • comparing the result of typeof
  • comparing literal values

In cases where == or != are being used as optimizations, use an
ESLint comment to disable the eqeqeq rule for that line explicitly. I
rather like this because it's a signal that the usage is intentional and
not a mistake.

Checklist
  • make -j4 test (UNIX), or vcbuild test (Windows) passes

tools lib

Enablie a lint rule to require `===` and `!==` instead of `==` and `!=`
except in some well-defined cases:

* comparing against `null` as a shorthand for also checking for
  `undefined`
* comparing the result of `typeof`
* comparing literal values

In cases where `==` or `!=` are being used as optimizations, use an
ESLint comment to disable the `eqeqeq` rule for that line explicitly. I
rather like this because it's a signal that the usage is intentional and
not a mistake.
