In the past, especially with the
omitempty
tag, there has been a semantic issue with theOption
type: whether a user omitted a field or set it tonull
manually,isPresent
would be set tofalse
.This introduced ambiguity similar to a raw pointer in Go since we couldn't differentiate between these two scenarios.
With the introduction of
omitzero
in Go 1.24, this problem can be completely resolved.Option
s withisPresent
set tofalse
are dropped, indicating "I do not want to touch this value."isPresent
set totrue
, indicating "I do want to touch this value."
