I get a "System.NullReferenceException" when I perform "Generate Application"

I get a "System.NullReferenceException" when I perform a "Generate Application". Yet if I copy ALL the components from one schematic page and paste them into second page and disable the first page. I perform a "Generate Application" and get no errors.

This is the case whether I use Creator 4.1 or 4.2.

Attached is a simple project. The offending page is enabled and the second page (working one) is disabled. Perform the "Generate Application" yourself. If you get the error as I did, disable the first page and then enable the second page. Perform another "Generate Application". It should complete with no error.

Hi Len,

The only difference between two schematic is the pin selection. In "Generates Error" schematic, pin vbat_n_0 is selected as P0[2] which is SAR1 reference. In "Works" schematic, pin vbat_n_0 is not selected and it is left to the creator to decide. Following scenario succeeds in the build-

- If you select both the pins manually

- If you leave both the pin selection to creator

In the "Generates Error" schematic, even if you had selected P0[2] for vbat_n_0, creator should have picked P0[4] for SAR reference (that means, SAR0 block selection for the component). I will let software team know about this issue. Thanks for bringing it to our notice.
