why i got this exception

Question

System.NullReferenceException: 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object.'

Deepak Tewatia · Answer

Got it! I'd be glad to help you with that. The "NullReferenceException" occurs when you try to access a member on a reference type that is currently null. This typically means you're trying to use a reference that doesn't point to an actual instance of an object. For example, consider the following code snippet: MyClass obj = null; obj.DoSomething(); // This line will throw a NullReferenceException In this case, "obj" is null, so attempting to call the method "DoSomething" on it will result in the exception. To resolve this, you need to ensure that the object is properly initialized before using it, like this: MyClass obj = new MyClass(); obj.DoSomething(); // Now this will work as expected Or, if the object can be null in some scenarios, you should check for null before accessing its members: if (obj != null) { obj.DoSomething(); // Safe to call now } I hope this clarifies the cause of the exception! If you have specific code you'd like me to review or further questions, feel free to share.
