Is it possible to keep my existing .master page and have it used with a new ASP.NET MVC 3 Razor view? I tried this:
@{
LayoutPage = "~/Views/Shared/Site.master";
}
And it gives me this error message:
The file '~/Views/Shared/Site.master' could not be rendered, because it does not exist or is not a valid page.
There is actually a way to do this. Scott Hansleman has a blog post on the topic: http://www.hanselman.com/blog/MixingRazorViewsAndWebFormsMasterPagesWithASPNETMVC3.aspx
It's a bit hackish, but doable. I think the approach described could be encapsulated and cleaned up even further so that you could build your views and controllers without worrying about how things are being wired together.
