I’m adding Microsoft.Web.Optimization to an MVC 4 Beta project.

My _Layout.cshtml:

<script src="@Microsoft.Web.Optimization.BundleTable.Bundles.ResolveBundleUrl("~/Scripts/Framework/js", true)"></script>

complains

Error 1 The type or namespace name ‘Optimization’ does not exist in the namespace ‘Microsoft.Web’ (are you missing an assembly reference?)

However, any .cs file in the project can resolve that type (for example, a controller).

Do I need to do something to inform a .cshtml page about the newly added reference?

    Turns out NuGet offered me and old version, 0.1. I’m not sure why that caused this issue, but removing that reference and adding 1.0.0-Pre through NuGet resolved the issue

    http://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.Web.Optimization

    Note that the namespace has changed to System.Web.Optimization in this release.
