How to get null value instead of empty string with Glass Mapper?

Question

I would like to get null value instead of empty string for 'Single-Line Text' field type with Glass Mapper.

I need to recognize if any value was set or if a field was reseted to default state (and I expect there is no value - null).

Do you know if it's possible?

When you say 'reset to default state', are you checking for the Standard Value of the field? If so, you can leverage the .ContainsStandardValue property of the underlying Field. — Nathan Hase, Jun 07 '16 at 13:09
Yes, I can do it like this but problem is I am using Glass Mapper and I get model with values. But if I will create custom handler, definitely I will use this property. Thanks — Lukas Dvorak, Jun 07 '16 at 13:59

Thank you Vlad for the link. Probably I will write this handler. And if I will do it, I will post my code.. – Lukas Dvorak Jun 07 '16 at 14:01
