Hi,

In the attached file (part of the ConfigurationManagement Application
Block supplied by Microsoft), mcs fails to compile the following indexer:

~        public string this [ string key, params object[] par ]
~        {
~            get
~            {
~                return string.Format( CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture,
_resourceManager.GetString( key, CultureInfo.CurrentCulture ), par );
~            }
~        }

It fails with this error:
Unhandled Exception: System.NullReferenceException: A null value was
found where an object instance was required
in <0x00695> Mono.CSharp.Indexer:Define (Mono.CSharp.TypeContainer)
in <0x002cc> Mono.CSharp.TypeContainer:DefineIndexers ()
in <0x00768> Mono.CSharp.TypeContainer:DefineMembers
(Mono.CSharp.TypeContainer)in <0x00353>
Mono.CSharp.RootContext:PopulateTypes ()
in <0x007cf> Mono.CSharp.Driver:MainDriver (string[])
in <0x0001b> Mono.CSharp.Driver:Main (string[])

Is this a known bug? If so, does it have a workaround?

Regards,
Roelof.
