jcifs problem:NullPointerException

borgy_t · 04-17-2005, 09:28 PM

hello,

i am having problems running my app when using JCIFS. i've traced the error to the following code:

Code:

import jcifs.smb.*;

BufferedReader br;
try {

jcifs.Config.setProperty ( "jcifs.netbios.wins", "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" );
br = new BufferedReader( new InputStreamReader (
       new SmbFileInputStream ( "smb://username:password@server/file.txt" ) ) );

...

there are no compile errors but it returns the NullPointerException error when i try to execute the program in Eclipse. i have imported the jcifs library into my classpath properly. can anyone help me about this? thanks.

thanks anyway, but i was able to solve the problem. my string argument in the smbfileinputstream was of the wrong format.
