When running under a debugger, every time I close my application I get one or more:

A first chance exception of type 'System.NullReferenceException' occurred in actiprosoftware.winuicore.dll

Additional information: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Thanks.

Can you get a stack trace? I tried turning on break on exceptions in the sample project but didn't get any exceptions.

I don't have break on exceptions on. The exception happens after Application.Run has exited, so the call stack is no good.

I'll need to be able to duplicate it in order to fix it. If you can make a test application that shows the problem that would be great.

In the mean time, maybe before you close your app, ensure that the control is disposed.

Ok I think I see what could be causing it. Does it stop happening in your app if you dispose the control first before shutting down?

The control is used on a tab in a dialog window. I am explicitly disposing the control when the window closes. The exception still occurrs. I have view splitters totally turned off. It seems that if i keep hitting Continue when the exception comes up, it always happens about 4 times.

It would help if you could get a test application together for this that demonstrates the exception.

Just FYI... A lot of the WinUICore framework has been changed for the upcoming 2.5 release this week hopefully to remove problems like this.
