PlayMakerHashTableProxy get key error [SOLVED]

[coxy17]

Hi

I am using the ArrayMaker and HashTables script and i am using the following code and i get an error message.

Code: [Select]

Debug.Log (GetComponent<PlayMakerHashTableProxy>().hashTable["test"]);
error

NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
CharacterSelectionScreenNGUI.OnEnable () (at Assets/Scripts/MLM/CharacterSelectionScreenNGUI.cs:10)
UnityEditor.DockArea:OnGUI()

if i check the hashtable prefill count i get a value, so just seems i cant reference a key or value from a hashTable.

Code: [Select]

Debug.Log (GetComponent<PlayMakerHashTableProxy>().hashTable.preFillCount);
Why do i get this message?

full code

Code: [Select]

using UnityEngine;
using HutongGames.PlayMaker;

[ExecuteInEditMode]
public class CharacterSelectionScreenNGUI : MonoBehaviour
{

void OnEnable () {

Debug.Log (GetComponent<PlayMakerHashTableProxy>().hashTable["test"]);
}

}

Hi,

thanks for the bump, I need this

It's because The proxy data is handled differently at runtime then editor time.

 so hashtable is empty if you try to access it at editor time,

use preFillKeyList and preFillXXXList during editing time to get the value you have inputed manually

you can pick the right prefill list by checking .preFillType

Check the method PreFillHashTable inside the proxy class to see how data is handled during editing and run time.

Let me know if you still struggle with this.

Bye,

 Jean
