    PdfMvcHelperExample not working

    I added thet 'PdfMvcHelperExample.cshtml' template, now trying to load the pdf, but I get this error;

    Compilation Error

    Description: An error occurred during the compilation of a resource required to service this request. Please review the following specific error details and modify your source code appropriately. 

    Compiler Error Message: CS0138: A using namespace directive can only be applied to namespaces; 'PdfHelper' is a type not a namespace

    Source Error:

      
    Line 1:  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
Line 2:  @inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoTemplatePage
Line 3:  @using PdfHelper
Line 4:  @{
Line 5:      Layout = null;

    pdf.cshtml and pdfHelper.cshtml are in the app_data folder.

    The PDFRazorHelperExample.master works.

    Any ideas?

    My colleague Peter helped me with a solution.

    First remove @using PdfHelper in the example. Then add the following to PdfHelper.cshtml in App_Code.

    @functions
{
    private static new HtmlHelper<object> Html
    {
        get { return ((WebViewPage)CurrentPage).Html; }
    }

    private static UrlHelper Url
    {
        get { return ((WebViewPage)CurrentPage).Url; }
    }
}

    no - haven't had a solution yet.

    will give this a try and let you know (fixing other issues atm).

    thank you!
