Object reference of C # MVC class not set to object instance

Can anyone help me work around my problem with my class?

I have an Address class:

public class Address
{
    public string addressDescription { get; set; }
    public string addressNumber { get; set; }
    public string adddressLine1 { get; set; }
    public string adddressLine2 { get; set; }
    public string adddressLine3 { get; set; }
    public string addressPostCode { get; set; }
    public double addressLatitude { get; set; }
    public double addressLongitude { get; set; }
}

And I have a route class:

public class Route
{
    public Address from { get; set; }
    public Address to { get; set; }
}

And in my controller, I have set some dummy information like this:

public ActionResult FareCalculator(string from , string to)
    {

        var myroute = new Route();

        myroute.from.addressDescription = from;
        myroute.from.addressLatitude = 51.481581;
        myroute.from.addressLongitude = -3.179090;
        myroute.to.addressDescription = to;
        myroute.to.addressLatitude = 51.507335;
        myroute.to.addressLongitude = -0.127683;

        return View(myroute);
    }

but when i run the project it crashes at myroute.from.addressDescription = from; the line says the object reference is not set to an object instance.

I can't see what I am doing wrong. Can anyone please help?

thank

You need to create a new instance Address

and assign it from

and to

:



public ActionResult FareCalculator(string from , string to)
{

    var myroute = new Route();
    myroute.from = new Address(); // new instance
    myroute.from.addressDescription = from;
    myroute.from.addressLatitude = 51.481581;
    myroute.from.addressLongitude = -3.179090;

    myroute.to = new Address(); // new instance
    myroute.to.addressDescription = to;
    myroute.to.addressLatitude = 51.507335;
    myroute.to.addressLongitude = -0.127683;

    return View(myroute);
}

May I suggest using a constructor to initialize the from and to fields? Otherwise, you will have to create new objects every time you use the Route class.

public class Route
{
    public Address from { get; set; }
    public Address to { get; set; }

    public Route()
    {
        from = new Address();
        to = new Address();
    }
}


This way you can use your code as you pointed out:

    var myroute = new Route();

    myroute.from.addressDescription = from;
    myroute.from.addressLatitude = 51.481581;
    myroute.from.addressLongitude = -3.179090;
    myroute.to.addressDescription = to;
    myroute.to.addressLatitude = 51.507335;
    myroute.to.addressLongitude = -0.127683;

    return View(myroute);

Installed Route

, but you forgot to create new instances Address

(for from

and to

):

var myroute = new Route
{
    from = new Address(),
    to = new Address()
};

myroute.from

and myroute.to

shoud is an instance of the class Address

.

 public ActionResult FareCalculator(string from , string to)
 {
        var myroute = new Route();

        myroute.from = new Address();
        myroute.from.addressDescription = from;
        myroute.from.addressLatitude = 51.481581;
        myroute.from.addressLongitude = -3.179090;

        myroute.to = new Address();
        myroute.to.addressDescription = to;
        myroute.to.addressLatitude = 51.507335;
        myroute.to.addressLongitude = -0.127683;

        return View(myroute);
    }
