I have a document library with an itemadded event receiver. Items in the document library are document sets.
when I create an item in the document library, the item added is executed. However that logic, I want to execute it only for the document set itself and not when I add a file INTO the document set.
the following code works fine when creating the document set, but the line:
string recurrent = item[Meetings.Common.Constants.FIELDS_AGENDAPOINTSRECURRENT_NAME].ToString();
throw object reference exception when the event receiver is executed when a file is uploaded to the document set
public override void ItemAdded(SPItemEventProperties properties)
{
Logger.LogDebug("AgendaPointsProposedEvents", "ItemAdded(SPItemEventProperties properties)", "BEGIN");
base.ItemAdded(properties);
try
{
base.EventFiringEnabled = false;
SPListItem item = properties.ListItem;
SPItemEventDataCollection afterProperties = properties.AfterProperties;
string listName = item.ParentList.RootFolder.Name;
string recurrent = item[Meetings.Common.Constants.FIELDS_AGENDAPOINTSRECURRENT_NAME].ToString();
bool recurrentBln = bool.Parse(recurrent);
if (recurrentBln)
{
#region NLNSSV-169
// If the user selects recurrent the agenda proposed item cant have an associated meeting.
// Also the security is reset to its initial state.
properties.ListItem[Meetings.Common.Constants.FIELDS_MEETING_NAME] = null;
properties.List.ResetRoleInheritance();
properties.ListItem.Update();

// Proposed meeting points should be visible to other departments as soon as they are added to a meeting.
// An event handler should change the authentication on the item level when a meeting point is added to (or removed from!) the meeting.
// This also needs a change in the views and screens..
SPFieldLookup sp = item.GetLookupField(MeetingsCommon.Constants.FIELDS_MEETING_NAME);

I figured it out.
THe idea is to detect the contentype because sometimes a list might have different content types and you want the code to execute only for one contenttype.
easy:
