I am using TypeMock 3.7 with the 2.0 .Net Framework and am receiving the following exception in my unit test:

Test method MyNamespace.MyTestClass.MyTestMethod threw exception: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object..


I was able to simplify my code to the following to reproduce the problem:


  
public class Class2<T>
{
     T _value;

     public T Value
     {
          get { return _value; }
          set { _value = value; }
        }
}

public class Class1<T>
{
      Class2<T> _class2;

       public Class2<T> MyClass2
       {
             get { return _class2; }
             set { _class2 = value; }
        }

 }

[TestMethod]
public void MyTestMethod()
 {

     Class1<int> myClass = new Class1<int>();
     using (RecordExpectations recorder = RecorderManager.StartRecording())
      {
                 //This is the line that throws the exception.
                 recorder.ExpectAndReturn(myClass.MyClass2.Value, 5);
        }
 }


If I change the code so that Class2 is not a generic, I no longer get the exception.

Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug?

Shawn,
Welcome to the forums,
You have found a bug :twisted: , thanks for reporting this and posting the code that reproduces the problem.

We will send you a fix offline.

The problem happens when the returned property is a Generic Type and the generic parameter is defined in the calling Type. TypeMock didn't know how to bind the types.

Using typemock 3.7.1 and .Net 2.0 I am experiencing a similar problem when my generic type is a IList<object>. I get a different exception tho... Can you send me the patch as well if you think this is related?

Hi Matt
It doesn't look like its the same problem.
Can you post an example code that generates the error?

Here is a sample that will result in the exception:

    public class Temp1<T>
    {
        private T _result;

        public T Result 
        { 
            get { return _result; } 
        }
    }

    public class Temp2 : Temp1<List<string>>
    {
        
    }

    public class Temp3
    {
        public string DoSomething()
        {
            Temp2 myTemp2 = new Temp2();
            return myTemp2.Result[0];
        }

    }

    [TestFixture]
    public class Temp3Fixture
    {
        [TestFixtureSetUp]
        public void Setup()
        {
            MockManager.Init();
        }
        
        [TestFixtureTearDown]
        public void Teardown()
        {
            MockManager.Verify();
        }

        [Test]
        public void DoSomethingTest()
        {
            List<string> myResult = new List<string>(new string[] { "result1" });
            
            using (RecordExpectations recorder = new RecordExpectations())
            {
                Temp2 myTemp2 = new Temp2();
                recorder.ExpectAndReturn(myTemp2.Result, myResult);   

            }

            Assert.AreEqual("result1", new Temp3().DoSomething());
        }
    }
