B4J Question Paint fail to initialise ?

[hookshy]

I have a process variable

dim pipecolor as paint    pipecolor= fx.Colors.Blue

and I face sometimes the problem when using its variable like
object should be first initialised paint ...on this line :
lbl(newindex).TextColor=pipecolor

when I try to fix this with :

If pipecolor.IsInitialized=False Then
    pipecolor=fx.Colors.Blue
End If

I get null pointer exception error ...

How should I handle this paint object to skip initialisation errors ?

I've run into that problem, too. I think the best solution is to store your "color" variables as Ints, as follows:

Dim pipecolor As Int = fx.Colors.To32Bit(fx.Colors.Blue)

and then when you want to set a color of something, use:

fx.Colors.From32Bit(pipecolor)
