NullReferenceException: producing ncover-reports

Currently I'm evaluating NCover for my company and I already made it to a working ncover.console which produces some xml (and it took me about 3 days so far). The resulting coverage.xml is about 50 MB huge (the community version isn't even able to produce such a coverage.xml - it terminates with an IOException) and now I want to produce some coverage Reports but coverage.report.exe terminates just after loading with an NullReferenceException (You may find the stack trace below). Is there any chance for a path for this problem? 'Cause we want the assurance that ncover is working before we invest!

Thanks a lot in advance, Daniel





[Output from ncover.reporting]
-- Top-level exception (System.Exception)

An error occurred while loading your coverage file: Der Objektverweis wurde nicht auf eine Objektinstanz festgelegt. (translation: ~Object reference not set to an instance of an object)

RE: NullReferenceException: producing ncover-reports

I would have to see some of the additional commands passed to the application to determine what is causing the issue.

We can also create a support ticket for you so we can track the issue down for you.

If you email support@ncover.com with a zipped copy of the coverage file and the switches you used with NCover.reporting, I can get you a response by tomorrow.

Thank you, Joe Feser
