Question

I am trying to follow the example here …but get the exception:

‘System.Uri’ does not contain a definition for ‘GetDynamicJsonObject’ and no extension method ‘GetDynamicJsonObject’ accepting a first argument of type ‘System.Uri’ could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

I have looked at every online example I can find but cannot figure out what am I missing here.

private void setTimeEstimates(ref List<Object> rides, string orig)
        {
            string dest, googleURL;
            dynamic googleResults;
            int driveTime; //in seconds

            using (myEntities = new RamRideOpsEntities())
            {
                foreach (Ride ride in rides)
                {
                    dest = interpretAddress(ride.PickupAddress);
                    googleURL = "http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/distancematrix/json" +
                        "?origins=" + orig +
                        "&destinations=" + dest +
                        "&mode=driving&sensor=false";

                    googleResults = new Uri(googleURL).GetDynamicJsonObject(); //EXCEPTION HERE!

                    driveTime = googleResults.result.duration;

                    ride.EstTime = driveTime + BASE_WAIT_TIME;
                }
                myEntities.SaveChanges();
            }
        }

Easy fix: forgot to add JsonUtils extension methods
