    Umbraco.TypedContent() becomes dynamic (and stops working!) when rendering a page

    Hi,

    Not sure if this is a bug or just the way I'm implementing it, but I am seeing inconsistent behaviour with Umbraco.TypedContent() when rendering partial pages.

    I render a page using the following code:

    @RenderPage(string.Format("~/Views/{0}.cshtml", myPage.Template.Alias), myPage.Id)

    and on the partial I have the following code (which doesn't work):

    var nodeId = PageData[0];
    var contentNode = Umbraco.TypedContent(nodeId);

    According to Visual Studio, the TypedContent() method is a Dynamic call, and subsequent methods like @contentNode.GetPropertyValue("section") give an error!

    If I change the code on my partial to the below, the TypedContent() method is correctly recognised as an  IPublishedContent type, and subsequent methods work fine:

    var nodeId = 0;
    nodeId = PageData[0];
    var contentNode = Umbraco.TypedContent(nodeId);

     

    Does anyone know why this is happening? In both cases I am passing the same value (an int) into the method, just declaring the int variable locally in the version that works?! :s

    Cheers,

    Maff

    Hi Maff,

    PageData[0] is dynamic, if you are 100% sure it's a int, cast it. e.g.

    var nodeId = (int)PageData[0];
