Question

Can anyone help me?

I had a simple code:

private void ObterRelatorios(string id) { 
    var relatorios = new Dictionary<string, string>();

    var xml = new XmlDocument();

    xml.Load("my_path");

    foreach (XmlNode node in relatoriosStaticos.DocumentElement.ChildNodes)
        relatorios.Add(node.Attributes["Titulo"].InnerText, string.Concat(node.Attributes["Url"].InnerText, id));
}

My xml is quite simple with 5 nodes and always is the same.

This is wierd because sometimes works, sometimes not.

This is what I get when throw an exception

Error Details:

Exception of type 'System.Web.HttpUnhandledException' was thrown.

Answer 1

The error says “[ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null. Parameter name: key]”

The value for:

node.Attributes["Titulo"].InnerText

apparently is null in some cases, and this is not allowed. The key for a dictionary entry cannot be null.
