Calling FbServerProperties.GetDatabasesInfo() generates a NullReference exception ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: DNET-641 URL: http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/browse/DNET-641 Project: .NET Data provider Issue Type: Bug Components: ADO.NET Provider Affects Versions: 4.8.1.0 Environment: Windows 10 Professional 64-bit; .NET 4.6; VS 2015 Reporter: Peter Taylor Assignee: Jiri Cincura Priority: Blocker The uninitialsied List<string> _databases member is used by FbDatabasesInfo.AddDatabase(string database) method [ _databases.Add(database)] _databases IS initialised by a call to FbDatabasesInfo.Databases property - but that is too late. Here is the offending code ( I can send a simple sample project demonstrating the issue, if required): /* This is the code where it goes wrong: NETProvider\src\FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient\Services\FbDatabasesInfo.cs using System; using System.Collections.Generic; namespace FirebirdSql.Data.Services { public class FbDatabasesInfo { public int ConnectionCount { get; internal set; } // this member is used before being initialised private List<string> _databases; // = new List<string>(); #if (NET_40) public IList<string> Databases #else public IReadOnlyList<string> Databases #endif { get { return (_databases ?? (_databases = new List<string>())).AsReadOnly(); } } internal FbDatabasesInfo() { } internal void AddDatabase(string database) { // this is where the uninitialised member is used, when FbServerProperties.GetDatabasesInfo() is called _databases.Add(database); } } } */ -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Firebird-net-provider mailing list Firebird-net-provider@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/firebird-net-provider
