IAsyncResult & 'Object Reference Not set to an Instance of...'

[mail.matty]

Hi All,

I've been working on a library which does async Http operations. The
library is exposed to COM as I need to access it via SQL2000.

Whenever the following line of code executes it generates the 'Object
Reference...' error.

IAsyncResult result = (IAsyncResult) req.BeginGetResponse(new
AsyncCallback(RespCallback), myRequestState);

something here is causing the error and I can't for the life of me
figure it out. I've included the full code below if anyone wanted to
see this line of code in context. Is the problem how i'm referring to
RespCallBack or myRequestState?

Not looking for an answer, but a nudge in the right direction would be
awsome! I've removed some unrelated code to avoid confusion.

Thanks,

Matt

Sorry about the double post!

Thought that my first one didn't get through
