Question

I’m using the Meleze.Web library for my web application and I want to add the compression only on release builds.

I tried to do a web.config transformation but in the Web.Release.config file, when I try to do

<configuration>

   <system.web.webPages.razor>
      <host xdt:Transform="Replace" factoryType="Meleze.Web.Razor.MinifyHtmlWebRazorHostFactory, Meleze.Web, Version=1.4.0.3, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=0a868b5321967eda" />
   </system.web.webPages.razor>

</configuration>

gives me an error saying that the :Transform is not declared. Any help would be appreciated. Please note, this is the Web.Config in the Views folder.

For me, its working perfectly. Steps that I followed are here:

1. Install Meleze.Web via Package Manager Console PM> Install-Package Meleze.Web
2. Open View/Web.config and replace the <host...../> line inside <system.web.webPages.razor> with <host factoryType="Meleze.Web.Razor.MinifyHtmlWebRazorHostFactory, Meleze.Web, Version=1.4.0.3, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=0a868b5321967eda" />

That’s all I did. Btw, I am using MVC 4.
