def z = null
z?.doIt()

does not throw a nullpointer, just returns null.

And if you want to save yourself the PITA, just throw in apache commons lang jar into your own foundation framework and use the many useful standardized utilities that are in there:

For example check out StringUtilis.isBlank(...) and StringUtils.isEmpty(...) at
