The type name X does not exist in the type Y error in a Silverlight project

by APIJunkie 4/27/2008 8:25:00 AM

If you run into this message when building a Silverlight project and have a class name and a namespace name that are identical you might be suffering from some kind of naming problem in the Silverlight development environment.

I found another reference to the problem in an MSDN forum.

To solve the problem I renamed the class name to a different name (one that is not identical to the namespace name).

Hope this helps...
