c＃将嵌套的子类转换为json

Question

我正在尝试（序列化？）JSON中的一个类并且我得到一个空引用异常 - 请你能帮我理解为什么并可能解决这个问题吗？

我写了一个包含几个嵌套类的类（JSON结构由英国运营商DPD提供）。

我有另一个包含公共变量的类，我从代码中为其赋值，以及一个方法/函数来实例化我的JSON类并从公共变量中提取值。

我在这行上得到一个空引用异常：

NewShipmentObject.consignment.consignmentNumber = null;

错误如下：

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

我调用并获取错误的方法如下：

Answer 1

在使用它们之前，您需要初始化所有对象（包括子实体）*，否则它们将采用它们的默认值（对象将为null）。即替换

NewShipmentObject.consignment.consignmentNumber = null;

使用：

NewShipmentObject.consignment = new IS_Consignment();
NewShipmentObject.consignment.consignmentNumber = null;

您可以节省大量的输入 - 而不是每个字段的逐行设置，您可以使用对象初始化程序语法来执行此操作：

var NewShipmentObject = new DPD_JSON.IS
{
    job_id = null,
    collectionOnDelivery = false,
    consignment = new IS_Consignment
    {
        consignmentNumber = null,
        ... more consignment settings here
    }
    ... etc.

应该注意的是，您不需要将未初始化的变量明确设置为默认值，即两者都

job_id = null,
collectionOnDelivery = false

是多余的，因为它们应该是任何事件中的默认值。

*（除非此初始化在构造函数中自动完成）
