Question

I’d like to use the Razor engine without view (cshtml) files, but on strings.
I want to do it from within MVC, I’ve seen examples that use

new RazorViewEngine().Render

but I can’t find the Render method, is it something from the older days of MVC?

I’ve also seen examples that use Razor.Parse, but I can’t find it either – probably missing a reference (but it should be there if I’m using MVC already, right?)

Is it advisable at all to use Razor if all I need to do is inject 3-4 parameters into an HTML string? I think I’m a bit infatuated with MVC right now and might not be thinking straight. I’m planning to cache the HTML strings in memory and just pass-in models from DB.

Thank you
