Mvc RenderPartial to spark view

Sorry if there is another question that covers this.

Here is my problem.

I am using Html.RenderPartial, i am also using T4MVC.

<%Html.RenderPartial(MVC.Shared.Views.MainMenu, Model.Menu); %>

spark view:

 <ul class="menu">
     <for each="var menuItem in Menu.ChildItems">
      <if condition="m开发者_StackOverflow中文版enuItem.ChildItems != null">
       <li class="drop">   
        <a href="${menuItem.Url}" alt="${menuItem.Tooltip}">${menuItem.DisplayText}</a>
        <span class="toggle">&nbsp;</span>
         <ul>
         <for each="var childItem in menuItem.ChildItems">
          <if condition="childItem.ApplicationName == @'Platform'">
           <li> 
            <a href="${childItem.Url}" alt="${childItem.Tooltip}">${childItem.DisplayText}</a>
           </li> 
          </if>
         </for>
         </ul>
       </li>
      </if>
      <else>
       <li>   
        <a href="${menuItem.Url}" alt="${menuItem.Tooltip}">${menuItem.DisplayText}</a>
       </li>
      </else> 
     </for>
    </ul>

The Menu has ChildItems but I get an error message Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Menu.ChildItems has a Count = 5

Stack Trace

Use following

#Html.RenderPartial(MVC.Shared.Views.MainMenu, Model.Menu);

It works!

Could you include the full stack of the null ref exception?

By debugging, you should be able to determine exactly what is triggering the exception. One thing you should try is to set the debugger to break on all exception (Ctrl-Alt-E brings up that dialog), so that you'll catch it as it happens. This should go a loong way to finding the root of the issue.
