The Type Or Namespace Name 'infosoftglobal' Could Not Be Found (Are You Missing A Using Directive Or An Assembly Reference?)

[litlmike]

Hello,

 

I am trying to use the FusionCharts Evaluation version to demo the charts before we buy them. I have tried including them into our current project but I am receiving the following error:

"The type or namespace name 'InfosoftGlobal' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)"

 

For some reason, we can use the demo website under the Download Package > Code > CS folders; we are able to use the "Start Debugging" mode under Visual Studio 2010. However, when trying to bring it over into our current project, is is not finding the 'InfosoftGlobal' namespace.

 

 

I am going through the online documentation, specifically: http://www.fusioncharts.com/docs/ (section: Using FusionCharts with ASP.NET 2.0 (C#) > Basic Example)

I have done the following:

1) Copied the charts and JavaScript class files contained in Download Package > Code > CS > FusionCharts folder, to our project's root directory

2) Copied the FusionCharts.dll (contained in Download Package > Code > CS > Bin folder) to the 'bin' folder of our Project.

3) Copied FusionCharts.cs file from Download Package > Code > CS > src folder to our App_Code folder.

4) Copied the FusionCharts.dll (contained in Download Package > Code > CS > Bin folder), to the our GAC (Global Assembly Cache) of the Developer's machine. I went to C:\Windows\Assembly folder and dragged and dropped FusionCharts.dll into this folder (Windows 7 Enterprise)

5) Went to the root folder of our Project and entered the following lines under the web.config file:

 

 

<assemblies>

<add assembly="FusionCharts, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=58bb3098fe7f0ede"/>

</assemblies>

 

6) Created a new page (SimpleChart.aspx) to continue with the online documentations and tried typing "using InfosoftGlobal;" in the code-behind page when I got the error described above.

7) I even added a reference to FusionCharts.dll into your project, because it wasn't working.

 

 

Suggestions?

Do you think by any change your antivirus or any protection is blocking the access to the dll file altogether. In case yes, you can go for the source of the dll in FusionCharts.cs file and use it for the same purpose.
