I have a razor helper in App_Code/MyHelpers.cshtml
The generated class name in obj/CodeGen is
`public class _App_Code_MyHelpers_cshtml`
And of course all my views throw compile errors when referencing "MyHelpers.Something"
Adding `@* GeneratePrettyNames : true *@` does not fix the issue because then the generated __namespace__ "ProjectName.App_Code" becomes invisible in the view-code.
```
namespace ProjectName.App_Code
{
public class MyHelpers
}
```
Adding this namespace "ProjectName.App_Code" to View/web.config does not help (since it does not generate any "using" statement - which is another bug probably)
Comments: That sounds unrelated to what I thought we were discussing. If you have helpers in App_Code, they get compiled at runtime, and will never be available to cshtml pages that are precompiled. That is by design, and has always been the case.
