ASP.NET MVC Razor View: The code block is missing a closing "}" character

by Oliver 13. June 2013 15:17

Some part of MVC 4 didn't like what was in my view: 1: @using Orchard.ContentManagement; 2: @using Orchard.Users.Models; 3: @{ 4: var userCanRegister = 5: @WorkContext.CurrentSite.As<RegistrationSettingsPart>().UsersCanRegister; 6: var enableLostPassword = 7: @WorkContext.CurrentSite.As<RegistrationSettingsPart>().EnableLostPassword; 8: } Turns out that the (incorrectly placed) @ signs in front of WorkContext were (finally) not swallowed silently anymore. Now, this works: 1: @using Orchard.ContentManagement; 2: @using Orchard.Users.Models; 3: @{ 4: var userCanRegister = 5: WorkContext.CurrentSite.As<RegistrationSettingsPart>().UsersCanRegister; 6: var enableLostPassword = 7: WorkContext.CurrentSite.As<RegistrationSettingsPart>().EnableLostPassword; 8: } It's just the error message that's a bit misleading.
