In my java webagent I create a Document object. For example NotesDocument document = ...; later I use remove on this object:
document.remove(true);
Afterwards I want to check if document is null so any functions which normally operates on that document will not be executed
for example:
if(document != null){
System.out.println(document.getItemValueString("ID"));
}
It still goes into the if statement and its saying: NotesException: Object has been removed or recycled.
Is != null functioning in this case?
You already created a reference in the memory here.
NotesDocument document = ...;
...
// Even you called document.remove(), it still exists because the code does not destroy the object and reference itself.
document.remove(true);
// That is why this still works.
if (document != null) {
System.out.println(document.getItemValueString("ID"));
}
You can explicitly assign document = null; after you call remove() if that is what you are designated to do.
Or
You can check isDeleted() of document. e.g. if (!document.isDeleted()).
