lprun has exception NullReferenceException, Query in windows run as expected

Helmut

Hi,

I run an LINQPad SQL query (lin2db provider) without any issues. If I try to run the same query with LPRUN.exe (Batch-File) I get a NullReferenceException. Mere snippets (without LINQ SQL) work fine for both LINQPad and LPRUN.exe.

Other LINQ SQL queries with linq2db provider have the same behavior. I tried with: sql2db provider for SQL Server and ACCESS.

I tried LINQ SQL with one of the samples with Microsoft SQL provider and it works fine.

Any idea?

Thanks a lot and best regards,

Helmut

I've looked at the source code for linq2db and found the likely cause: it's writing to the SQL translation tab using a TextWriter which is null when called from lprun.

I've modified LINQPad to assign a null writer in this scenario, so hopefully this will fix the problem. You can download the new beta here:

Let me know how you get along.
