Question by biohazard · Jul 26, 2011 at 07:53 AM · javascriptnullreferenceexception

The infamous NullReferenceException again

We all know and love the NullReferenceException don't we?

here's the code that produces it :

 var stoppuhr : System.Diagnostics.Stopwatch;//declaring like a baws.

here comes the NullReference

  stoppuhr.Start(); // NullReferenceException

Any help is appreciated,

thanks,

Like I suggested in your other question about keeping track of time, this occurs because you're trying to access a membermethod of an object you haven't instantiated yet. You've only declared the variable, and then told the system that the variable is of type Stopwatch. You haven't actually MADE the object yet.

You have to instantiate it with the "new" keyword before you can use it, see this list of UnityScript keywords:

http://www.unifycommunity.com/wiki/index.php?title=UnityScript_Keywords#new

That is, I suspect you need something like the following, keeping in mind that I don't usually code in JS:

var stoppuhr : System.Diagnostics.Stopwatch = new System.Diagnostics.Stopwatch();
