value is null.

The following example demonstrates how to create a CounterCreationDataCollection object by using CounterCreationData objects from another CounterCreationDataCollection.

String^ myCategoryName;
int numberOfCounters;
Console::Write( "Enter the number of counters : " );
numberOfCounters = Int32::Parse( Console::ReadLine() );
array<CounterCreationData^>^myCounterCreationData = gcnew array<CounterCreationData^>(numberOfCounters);
for ( int i = 0; i < numberOfCounters; i++ )
{
   Console::Write( "Enter the counter name for {0} counter : ", i );
   myCounterCreationData[ i ] = gcnew CounterCreationData;
   myCounterCreationData[ i ]->CounterName = Console::ReadLine();

}
CounterCreationDataCollection^ myCounterCollection = gcnew CounterCreationDataCollection( myCounterCreationData );
Console::Write( "Enter the category Name:" );
myCategoryName = Console::ReadLine();

// Check if the category already exists or not.
if (  !PerformanceCounterCategory::Exists( myCategoryName ) )
{
   CounterCreationDataCollection^ myNewCounterCollection = gcnew CounterCreationDataCollection( myCounterCollection );
   PerformanceCounterCategory::Create( myCategoryName, "Sample Category", myNewCounterCollection );
   for ( int i = 0; i < numberOfCounters; i++ )
   {
      myCounter = gcnew PerformanceCounter( myCategoryName,myCounterCreationData[ i ]->CounterName,"",false );

   }
   Console::WriteLine( "The list of counters in 'CounterCollection' are : " );
   for ( int i = 0; i < myNewCounterCollection->Count; i++ )
      Console::WriteLine( "Counter {0} is '{1}'", i, myNewCounterCollection[ i ]->CounterName );
}
else
{
   Console::WriteLine( "The category already exists" );
}
