Why isn't there a Guid.IsNullOrEmpty() method

asp.net-mvc, c#

Solution

`Guid` is a value type, so a variable of type `Guid` can't be null to start with. If you want to know if it's the same as the empty guid, you can just use:

if (guid == Guid.Empty)

Problem

This keeps me wondering why Guid in .NET does not have `IsNullOrEmpty()` method (where empty means all zeros) I need this at several places in my ASP.NET MVC code when writing the REST API. Or am I missing something because nobody on the Internet has asked for the same?
