System.Web.UI.Page derivative...

[Terry Mulvany]

I have a 'BasePage' (BasePage.cs) derived from System.Web.UI.Page that all
my pages inherit from. I need to set some properties (either in the OnInit
or constructor) based on a potential Request.Cookie or a name/value pair in
Request.QueryString.
But I am getting a
'System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of
an object.'
error when I try to view any aspx derived from this BasePage.
I am using HttpContext.Current.Request.Cookies as well as for the
QueryString but still get this error.
Any ideas!?

Thank you.

Are you using Request.QueryString.Get("name").Value?

What is the line of code that is throwing this exception? There is an object
reference in that line that is not initialized or is null for some reason.

public BasePage()

protected override void OnInit(EventArgs e)
{
if (
HttpContext.Current.Request.Cookies["source_code"].Value.ToString() !=
string.Empty )
{
...
}
...
}
}
}
