NullReferenceException in RazorLight.Compilation.RoslynCompilationService.IsAssemblyDebugBuild

See original GitHub issue

I’m using RazorLight v2.0.0-alpha3 and I’m getting a NRE when I try to render a razor template from my unit test project.

{System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
   at RazorLight.Compilation.RoslynCompilationService.IsAssemblyDebugBuild(Assembly assembly)
   at RazorLight.Compilation.RoslynCompilationService..ctor(IMetadataReferenceManager referenceManager)
   at RazorLight.EngineFactory.Create(RazorLightProject project, RazorLightOptions options)
   at RazorLight.EngineFactory.ForEmbeddedResources(Type rootType)

The constructor of the RoslynCompilationService is executing this line of code: IsAssemblyDebugBuild(OperatingAssembly);

The OperatingAssembly property returns the result from Assembly.GetEntryAssembly(), but in my case this returns null. Because of this the IsAssemblyDebugBuild method throws a NRE: return assembly.GetCustomAttributes(false) ==> assembly == null

@toddams - we are getting this same error with .net 4.6.2. Your sandbox uses Dependency Injection 2.0.0.0 but the version 2.0.3 or higher have the error which you seem to have fixed in #159 (669cb741998b6248d7ccfa3f9da2d25acdeaa2f8)

Our project is awaiting your Beta2 release. Can you please provide an ETA?
