J'ai une erreur : La référence d'objet n'est pas définie à une instance d'un objet
sur la ligne @Html.DropDownListFor(m => m.GetCategoriesName, Model.GetCategories)

Je pense que l'erreur vient du faite que dans ma classe Post, les champs :

Code:

1
2
3
4
5
6
 
[ForeignKey("CategoryID")]
        public virtual Category Category { get; set; }
 
[ForeignKey("TagID")]
        public virtual Tag Tag { get; set; }

sont à NULL lorsque je passe cela ici :

Code:

1
2
3
 
context.Entry(postCatViewModel.GetPosts).State = System.Data.Entity.EntityState.Modified;
                context.SaveChanges();

La classe PostCategoryLink me sert à faire la liaison entre les classe Post et Category pour pouvoir afficher dans la dropdown la liste des mes catégories.

Je pense que je me suis un peu perdu dans mon code (je débute le MVC Razor), il y a-t-il plus simple ?

Je vous remercie pour votre aide et bon week-end !
