System.NullReferenceException: 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object.'

[jluzardo1971]

Hi,

In the latest version of the code I'm getting:

System.NullReferenceException: 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object.'

in

private async Task Authenticate(string username, string password, string endpoint)

in the

public partial class Client : ISwiftClient, IDisposable

This is not being called:

I'm using this code to call the SwiftClient and the code works with version 1.2.2 of the nuGet package

[jluzardo1971]

I'm using this code:

public class OpenStackSwift : IDisposable, IFileServer
{

    SwiftClient.Client client;
    string containerId;


    // Flag: Has Dispose already been called?
    bool disposed = false;

    public OpenStackSwift(string username, string password, List<string> endPoints, string containerId)
    {
        this.containerId = containerId;
        client = new SwiftClient.Client()
        .WithCredentials(new SwiftCredentials
        {
            Username = username,
            Password = password,
            Endpoints = endPoints
        })
        .SetRetryCount(6)
        .SetRetryPerEndpointCount(2)
        ;
    }

    public void UploadFile(System.IO.Stream stream, string fileName)
    {
        stream.Position = 0;
        using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream())
        {
            stream.CopyTo(ms);
            Task<SwiftResponse> task = Task.Run(() => client.PutObject(this.containerId, fileName, ms.ToArray()));
            SwiftResponse response = task.Result;
        }
    }

Hello @jluzardo1971

I am also getting the same error. Do you have any comments to resolve this ?. Your input will help a lot.
Thanks in advance.

I've created Pull request address this issue. As @jluzardo1971 mentioned, the SetHttpClient() method is not being called and as a result the _client variable does not get initialized. I just initialized it by default until I can spend some more time and understand where exactly SetHttpClient should be called. For now this minor fix has gotten me up and running for my project which has a very tight deadline. Thank you guys for putting this together. Aside for the minor obstacles, it saved us lots of time.
