Error "Object refernce not set" when using http context in Eventreceiver for Document Library,

Question

Hi,
Httpcontext returning null values when I used in item adding event of document library.
I have a document set home page which has document set properties(by default) and one OOTB document library is placed in the same page.When user clicking on upload documents in the ribbon I need to read the document set properties.
when uploading the docs if I pass the Hardcoded item id of the document set I am getting the values of the document set in the item added event.
now the problem, i have the id in the query string if i want to read the query string value using httpcontext in the itemadding event and pass it to item added event using httpruntime it is throwing "object reference error" .
if any body has any solution/workaround how to read the context in the document library event receiver,please help me out.
Thanks ,G1

Hi,
Did you use the HttpContext.Current method to get the current context?
You can use the HttpContext.Current to check whether it works.
There is a similar thread for your reference.
