Null Pointer exception when using web services

[timy...@gmail.com]

Hi, when I run the following code I get
"Exceptionjava.lang.NullPointe­rException"

Any idea what I did wrong?
Also, I'm using WSDL file to access the web service, not external
library. I'm using Eclipse environment to develop web service client.
<code>

public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println( "hello" );

GoogleSearchService service = new GoogleSearchServiceLocator();

try
{
GoogleSearchPort google = service.getGoogleSearchPort();

String key = "my key....";
String search = "Exchange rate";

GoogleSearchResult result = new GoogleSearchResult();
result =
google.doGoogleSearch(key,sear­ch,
0, 10, true, "countryEN", false, "lang_en", "UTF-8",
"UTF-8");

System.out.println("Did you mean: " + result);
}
catch ( Exception e )
{
System.out.println("Exception" + e );
}
}

</code>

e.printStackTrace() is your friend - it will tell you what line the
exception occurs on.

But for me, getGoogleSearchPort doesn't take a parameter... and I'm
getting the following error

It occurs at GoogleSearchResult result = new GoogleSearchResult();
result =
google.doGoogleSearch(key,"Tim Kuo",

0, 10, true, "countryEN", false, "lang_en", "UTF-8",
"UTF-8");

and I have no clue why it happens. Seems like there is nothing wrong
with my code...
