    Datatype from UserControl, DataEditorSetting, System.InvalidCastException

    Hello

    I am trying to add a new Datatype from a UserControl.

    Just to get the basic working I started out with an example from the web

            [DataEditorSetting("Statuses", type=typeof(umbraco.editorControls.SettingControls.Values), description="Enter list of possible statuses")]

            public string GetStatuses { get; set; } 

    But when I make a Datatype from a usercontrol with the code above, which is equal to the example im following, I get "An object of the type ASP.usercontrols_testMyUserControl_ascx cannot be converted to the type umbraco.editorControls.userControlGrapper.IUsercontrolDataEditor."

    Hope someone can tell me what I am doing wrong here. 

    Thanks

    Inherit from IUsercontrolDataEditor:

    public partial class MyUserControl : System.Web.UI.UserControl, umbraco.editorControls.userControlGrapper.IUsercontrolDataEditor
