Why does Set.add(c.id) fail?
I am trying to understand what I am doing wrong here. I have defined a Set that will hold IDs then used the .add method to add the ID from a Case but it fails. I've redefined the Set as a set of strings as well but either way I get a null pointer exception even though there is always at least 1 record in the list.
Here's a snippet of my class
Here's a snippet of my class
Set<id> RecIds; for(Case c:cs){ System.debug('***** entering loop c:cs cs.size() = ' + cs.size() + ' *****' ); if(c.RecordTypeId==rsc){ System.debug('***** inside rsc IF statement c.id = ' + c.id + ' ***** '); RecIds.add(c.id); System.debug('***** c.id ' + c.id + ' was added to RecIds *****'); }and here's the debug log

You need to initialize your set. The error is saying that you are de-referencing a null object, meaning the set is null.
On line one do the following: Set<id> RecIds = new Set<id>();
