Null Check Always Returns Null, If Removed Returns Object Reference Not Set To An Instance Of An Object

Jun 24, 2010

I have some code which gets child items for a menu via the GetChildren function which takes a list of menuData: Dim builtMenu As New List(Of MenuData)(_rawData.FindAll(Function(item) item.GroupingID = 0))

For Each menuData As MenuData In builtMenu
If menuData.Children IsNot Nothing Then
menuData.Children.AddRange(GetChildren(menuData))
End If
Next

If I check if menudata.children isnot nothing, it always is nothing because the GetChildren function is yet to run (providing the child items, which do exist). If I remove this check and just have this code:

Dim builtMenu As New List(Of MenuData)(_rawData.FindAll(Function(item) item.GroupingID = 0))

For Each menuData As MenuData In builtMenu
menuData.Children.AddRange(GetChildren(menuData))
Next

Then I am presented with a Object reference not set to an instance of an object error on menuData.Children.AddRange(GetChildren(menuData))

Passing Null Object() ByRef Returns Initialized Object()?

Dec 8, 2009

I am making use of a 3rd party dll and am encountering some strange behavior in VB, which doesn't occur in C# Perhaps someone can explain what is going on. Anyhow, I am making use of a method in this 3rd party library which accepts an array parameter ByRef. The end result is the variable should remain null after the method call, but it is returning initialized for some reason.

C# - GetEntryAssembly Returns Null?

Apr 13, 2012

I have a WPF application that uses a third-party library to perform a specific task; this library, in one of its methods, executes the statement Assembly.GetEntryAssembly(). If I run the WPF application on debug (by running a .Net exe for testing) the library works properly and Assembly.GetEntryAssembly() returns a reference to the assembly of the executable, but in production I have a different situation that causes me some problems.

File In Returns Null

Oct 27, 2010

Rather interesting bit on this one, I have all the code where it should be working but whenever it hits parse1 it returns the file as null. [code] I probably just need a fresh pair of eyes because I'm not seeing where this is glitching (...or if it's just my computer in this case.)Rather annoying at this point, tried break points and following the execution to catch the error but no such luck.

Session Showing Object Reference To Null Exception

May 31, 2012

I have a VB.NET application which runs perfectly with local host. But when I upload it to my server the session objects throw null reference exception.

Sessions is not working in a single page. If I use session on any other page it is working perfectly.

I have enabled session in that page using the EnableSessionState property. Also in web.config I enabled the use of session variables.

.net - Instantiating TransactionScope Returns Null?

Nov 21, 2009

I have some VB.NET code that creates a TransactionScope instance:

LoggingUtility.LogDebug("UpdateCallTable", "SatComCallDataImporter", "About to associate call data with contracts")
Using ts = New TransactionScope()
LoggingUtility.LogDebug("UpdateCallTable", "SatComCallDataImporter", "Getting all unimported SatCom calls")

My application is throwing an exception on the call to the creation of a new TransactionScope, with "Object reference not set to an instance of an object.". The exception isn't thrown on my development machine or my test machine; only on the customers production machine, and I have no idea why. I've placed debug lines immediately before and after this line so I'm positive it is this line causing the problem.

A have used TransactionScopes throughout the application and this is the only place throwing the exception on the client machine."About to associate call data with contracts" gets written to the log and the next log entry is the "Object reference not set to an instance of an object".

Code works fine if I move it out of a transaction.I've been struggling with this for 4 days now and have got no closer.

Is their a more elegant way to assign a space to a value, if a database call returns null for a data set column? I am doing the following check which is pretty tedious:

If (ds.Tables("employee").Rows(0).Item("txtNamePrefix").IsDBNull(0)) Then
txtNamePrefix.Text = ""
Else
txtNamePrefix.Text = ds.Tables("employee").Rows(0).Item("txtNamePrefix")

Silverlight Service Callback Returns Null

The employee object will stay null. If I put a break into the service call and follow through the code it finds the correct record from the database and the return statement shows an object with the correct data but still the employee object in silverlight side will remain null.

Asp.net - Request Function Returns Null In Firefox/Chrome?

Apr 25, 2011

I have a several form elements that I am dynamically creating with javascript when a user changes a number value in a textbox, by filling the innerHTML of a div like so:

dfinnerhtml = dfinnerhtml + "<div class='field'> ";
dfinnerhtml = dfinnerhtml + "<textarea name='textbox1" + suffix + "' type='text' id='textbox1" + suffix + "' value='' rows='4' cols='20' class='field'></textarea> ";
dfinnerhtml = dfinnerhtml + "</div> ";

Then, in the aspx.vb code behind, when the user clicks the Save button, I run through a series of Requests to try and add the values that are in these form elements to a SQL string:

Dim DFTestValue1 As String DFTestValue1 = Request("textbox" & c.ToString)

where c is a loop counter to the # of textboxes created (the input value mentioned above that triggers the create) The problem here is that this code works in Internet Explorer but not in Firefox or Chrome. The Request() value returns null and nothing is saved. I hope I've explained this well enough.

Check Object's Property For Null Or Empty String?

Jul 28, 2009

I'm using FileHelper to generate object's property. Here is an example of one property:

<FieldOptional(), _
FieldTrim(TrimMode.Both)> _
<FieldNullValue(GetType(String), " ")> _
Public StoreNo As String

As you can see the StoreNo will either have a value or " ", one of the business policy is to check if the StoreNo is empty or nothing if the object's StoreNo is empty or null then the record will not create.

I though about creating an HasValue Function in the class to check the StoreNo and other properties in the object but I feel like it is a hack.

Public Function HasValue() As Boolean
Dim _HasValue As Boolean = True
If StringHelper.IsNullOrBlank(Me.StoreNo) Then

[Code]....

I don't think this approach is an ideal solution. what if the StoreNo is remove or change to something else. What's the best approach to check object's property?

Query - Access Db Returns Null After Changing Operating System Date?

May 8, 2012

I have a select statement which was returning the required values but when I changed the OS date from English(US) to English(UK), it now returns null. I believe the problem is concerned with date since in the query am selecting values where the date from the database is the same as the date in a combobox but I don't know what else I can do. It almost looks like the dates in the combox and in the database are not the same and yet the date in the combobox is actually retrieved from the database and has been returning values fine until I changed the system date format.Here's my select command:

cmd4.CommandText = _
"SELECT sum(brought_qtty), recieved_qtty from brought_coffee, centre_weigh where brought_date=#" & _
dtComb.Text.Trim & "#" & _[code].......
