XmlNode

[gigs]

hi

im getting this error when i tried to write start element and when i try to
write value: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

XmlNode node;
XmlNode izmjenaNode;

XmlTextWriter xmlWriter = new XmlTextWriter(Console.Out);
xmlWriter.Formatting = Formatting.Indented;
xmlWriter.WriteProcessingInstruction("xml", "version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' ");

foreach (XmlNode nod in node.ChildNodes)
{
if (nod.Name == "izmjena")
{
attrId = nod.Attributes["id"].Value;
izmjenaNode = odjeljci.GetElementById(attrId);
xmlWriter.WriteStartElement(izmjenaNode.Name);
xmlWriter.WriteValue(izmjenaNode.Value);
xmlWriter.WriteFullEndElement();
}
}


what is the problem here_

thanks

write value: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Sounds like izmjenaNode is null, presumably because it couldn't find
the right element.

Could you post a short but complete program which demonstrates the
problem?

See http://www.pobox.com/~skeet/csharp/complete.html for details of
what I mean by that.

i have this two xml and i need to make third xml. i go trough obrazac and if
obrazac have attribute but no children than go to odjeljci and find that
odjeljak and write it to third. if obrazac have attribute and children than i
need to check if children is izmjena or red/redovi. if it is izmjena than i need
to take izmjena id and check for that id in same odjeljak in odjeljci and write
odjeljak from odjeljci with text from izmjena at that id element. if name is
red/redovi than i need to take id and go to odjeljci and write just those
red/redovi.


odjeljci:

<obrazac>
<odjeljak sifra="G.5">
<red num="1">
<text id="1">neki text</text>
</red>
<red num="2">
<stupac>

<odjeljak sifra="G.6" />

other xml:, i have 20 xml like this. structure is same, but elements are in
different order or not all elements in

can you give me any suggestion, some better approach to this problem? thanks!

Please post a sample program which is *complete*. I'm happy to copy and
paste an XML file, but the code you post should just compile, on its
own, with no extras (such as using directives) needed.

Okay. In the sample files you provided, there was:

<odjeljak sifra="G.6" />

in the first file, but not in the second. Assuming I've got the first
the right way round, it's trying to find a similar element in the
second file, but that doesn't exist - so SelectSingleNode is returning
null. You're then trying to use that null value.

You should look at the value returned by SelectSingleNode and take
appropriate action if it's null.
