Hi All, I feel this might be a double up but i have not been able to find a solution for the below error. Please let me know if a solution has been found?
I have recently updated VS to 15.6.7 and subsequently updated to Xamrin.Forms 2.5.1.444934 with Zxing.Net.Mobile 2.4.1 using .NETStandard 2.0. Since doing this I now get a null reference error each time I call the script.
Also I have only seen the error on Android (testing iOS tonight)
Here is the error:
***** ERROR ***** BtnScanQR_Clicked - Opening ZXing Failed: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

at App.MainPage+<BtnScanQR_Clicked>d__2.MoveNext () [0x00023] in C:\Users\Admin\source\repos\App\App\App\MainPage.xaml.cs:67
In my MainActivity.cs I call the following after my Forms.Int:
//QR code reader
global::ZXing.Net.Mobile.Forms.Android.Platform.Init();
And this is the script with in my click event on the MainPage.cs:
//Open QR scanner for code scanning
private async void BtnScanQR_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
try
{
var scanner = new MobileBarcodeScanner();
var result = await scanner.Scan();
strAccessToken.Text = result.Text.Trim();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
GlobalScript.DebugMessages("ERROR", "BtnScanQR_Clicked", "Opening ZXing Failed: " + ex);
}
}
Even rolling back to my original versions of each package I'm now still having the same error.
Any assistance would be appretiated
