UIP 2.0 Navigation Error
Posted on 2007-11-28
I am in the process of converting an application from the .net 1.1 framework to .net 2.0 that uses the Microsoft UIP Application block. This app uses a graph navigator which hasn't changed during conversion. When I start the app and try to test each of the views, I randomly receive the error:
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Stack Trace:
[NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.]
Microsoft.ApplicationBlock
Microsoft.ApplicationBlock
System.EventHandler.Invoke
System.Web.UI.Control.OnLo
System.Web.UI.Control.Load
System.Web.UI.Page.Process
Does anyone have an idea as to what would cause this?

Sorry about that.
Here is my source code (at least where I think it is breaking):
public void NavigateBreadCrumb(string NavigateTo)
{
Navigate(NavigateTo);
}
I've stepped through this code, and the NavigateTo parameter is always populated with the view name that I want to navigate to.
Here is the UIP portion of my config file:
<uipConfiguration enableStateCache="true" allowBackButton="false">
<objectTypes>
<iViewManager name="WebFormViewManager" type="Humana.ApplicationBl
<state name="WebState" type="Humana.ApplicationBl
<controller name="ReportsController" type="Humana.EnterpriseFR.
<statePersistenceProvider name="WebStatePersistence"
</objectTypes>
<views>
<view name="MenuHome" type="ReportsMenu.aspx" controller="ReportsControl
<view name="LoadActivityReport" type="ActivityReport.aspx"
<view name="LoadErrorReport" type="ErrorReport.aspx" controller="ReportsControl
</views>
<navigationGraph iViewManager="WebFormViewM
<node view="LoadActivityReport">
<navigateTo navigateValue="Redisplay" view="LoadActivityReport" />
<navigateTo navigateValue="Exit" view="MenuHome" />
</node>
</navigationGraph>
<navigationGraph iViewManager="WebFormViewM
<node view="LoadErrorReport">
<navigateTo navigateValue="Exit" view="MenuHome" />
<navigateTo navigateValue="Redisplay" view="LoadErrorReport" />
</node>
</navigationGraph>
</uipConfiguration>
Thanks!

Thanks!
doesn't help so much. are you sure the error is there, of maybe before calling that method?
Also, check if the NavigateTo is not null:
public void NavigateBreadCrumb(string NavigateTo)
{
if (NavigateTo != null)
Navigate(NavigateTo);
else
{
// show some error message here
}
}

Jaime,
You were right, that isn't where the error is located. When I step through the code it occurs after the navigate statement. It's erroring out somewhere between the end of the navigate call and the page_load event of the next view. Not sure why this is happening since it all works without fail with the 1.4 version.
