Using Visual Studio 2012, on a Razor view page, in the JavaScript section, I am getting what I think is a battle between Razor syntax vs JavaScript syntax. In particular, the trailing semicolon in the script section is flagged by intellisense and a compiler warning (not error) is delivered:

‘Warning 13 Syntax error’.

If I remove it, then I get a statement termination recommendation (ReSharper in this case, but just good practice).

<script type="text/javascript">
    $().ready(function(){
        var customer = @Html.Raw(ViewBag.CustomerJSON);  // <- Razor (I think) doesn't like this semicolon
    });
</script>

Is this a bug in Razor? If so, is there a way I can rewrite this to avoid this issue?

    Is this a bug in Razor?

    Absolutely not. Run your application, and it will work as expected.

    It is a bug in the tools you are using (Visual Studio 2012, ReSharper, …) that are incapable of recognizing perfectly valid syntax and warning you about something that you shouldn’t be warned about. You could try opening an issue on the Microsoft Connect site and signalling this bug if that hasn’t already been done.
