Could not build documentation #72

Open starkskalle opened 7 years ago

starkskalle commented 7 years ago

Hi,

I am not entirely sure if my .sdnav file is correct so I am attaching it as well (I have changed the file extension to .txt). I am having the same issue in two latest versions (1.2.0 and 1.1.2):

Starting step: "Parsing project file"
Starting step: "Parsing code"
Starting step: "Export documentation"
Could not build documentation.
System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

doc-nav.txt

Let me know if there is anything else you need to investigate this potential issue.

Thanks

It looks like the issue above was caused be the fact that my navigation file name was NOT default.sdnav.

Will add a better error message for this case. Thank you for the Report!
