    retrieve member info in vb.net

    Hi,

    I'm stuck again :S.

    I'm creating a user control to access information from a db. In the members type, I added a property (userid). The idea is ro read that information when the user logs in the site and use it to query the db.

    My testing  user control (vb.net) have a button and a label. When the button is pressed, the userid should show in the label. I have this code:

     
    Protected Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
     
        Dim n As umbraco.cms.businesslogic.member.Member
        Label1.Text = n.getProperty(
    "UserId").Value.ToString
     
    End Sub

    The error I recive is (translated using google, because my message is in spanish):

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

     Looks like the object "n" is empy.  

    Any ideas?

     

    Thanks


    Javier

    Hi, you declare object, but don't create it with something like this

    n = umbraco.cms.businesslogic.member.Member.getCurrent()

    Thanks for the answer.

    That didn't work. 'getCurrent()  not member of  umbraco.cms.businesslogic.member.Member'

    I tried with  n = umbraco.cms.businesslogic.member.Member.GetCurrentMember()

    but still same error.

    Hi Peter,

    I recive this:

    Value of type 'System.Xml.XPath.XPathNodeIterator' cannot be converted to 'umbraco.cms.businesslogic.member.Member'. 

    I asume the object declaration also need to be changed, but dont know to what.

    Thanks

    I remove all the lines and leave only

    Label1.Text = umbraco.library.GetCurrentMember().ToString

    that gives as answer the value 

    MS.Internal.Xml.XPath.XPathSelectionIterator  

    I'm still lost :S
