App_Code folder question concerning profile object

[Rusty Hill]

I have a base class that contains code for the profile object that works
fine when the code is not in a file within the App_Code folder. Once I put
the code into the App_Code folder it will no longer compiling telling me:
"The name 'Profile' does not exist in the current context"

What am I missing here (besides a clue)?

Maybe a missing "using"

using System.Web.Configuration;
using System.Web.Profile;

 

[bruce barker]

including the namespace:

using System.Web.Profile;

-- bruce (sqlwork.com)

It has those and I have tried fully qualifying the profile name space to no
avail.

The same code in another class that is not in the App_Code folder runs fine.
I can tell I am getting ready to learn something new here. Thank you.

Doing that and have it fully qualified neither work.

Use Profile from context:
System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Profile

Man dude... I have no idea.

Appendix 2: Migrating Code that works with the ASP.NET 2.0 Profile Object

There is some weird mention of the proxy class at the bottom.

I'm pulling at straws, but maybe that can help ( ??? )

HttpContext.Current.Profile.GetPropertyValue("xxx")

did the trick, thank you!!!!!
