Null Pointer exception

[nobody]

Hi, when I run the following code I get
"Exceptionjava.lang.NullPointe­rException"


Any idea what I did wrong?
Also, I'm using WSDL file to access the web service, not external
library. I'm using Eclipse environment to develop web service client.
<code>


public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println( "hello" );


GoogleSearchService service = new GoogleSearchServiceLocator();


try
{
GoogleSearchPort google = service.getGoogleSearchPort();


String key = "my key....";
String search = "Exchange rate";


GoogleSearchResult result = new GoogleSearchResult();
result =
google.doGoogleSearch(key,sear­ch,
0, 10, true, "countryEN", false, "lang_en", "UTF-8",
"UTF-8");


System.out.println("Did you mean: " + result);
}
catch ( Exception e )
{
System.out.println("Exception" + e );
}
}

Absolutely. You attempted to dereference a null reference.

The line numbers in the stack trace will identify the exact source file
and line on which the dereference attempt occurred (if the class
contains debug info). My first guess, however, would be that
service.getGoogleSearchPort() is returning null.

Also, I'm using WSDL file to access the web service, not external
library. I'm using Eclipse environment to develop web service client.

String key = "my key....";
String search = "Exchange rate";


GoogleSearchResult result = new GoogleSearchResult();
result =
google.doGoogleSearch(key,sear­ch,
0, 10, true, "countryEN", false, "lang_en", "UTF-8",
"UTF-8");


System.out.println("Did you mean: " + result);
}
catch ( Exception e )
{
System.out.println("Exception" + e );
}
}

But for me, getGoogleSearchPort doesn't take a parameter... and I'm
getting the following error

It occurs at GoogleSearchResult result = new GoogleSearchResult();
result =
google.doGoogleSearch(key,"Tim Kuo",
0, 10, true, "countryEN", false, "lang_en", "UTF-8",
"UTF-8");


and I have no clue why it happens. Seems like there is nothing wrong
with my code...
