The type or namespace name 'RateWebServiceClient' could not be found

[rrocket]

The entire error is "CS0246: The type or namespace name 'RateWebServiceClient' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)"

I am trying to access a web reference and cannot figure out why I am giving the above error. When I type the "using RateWebServiceClient...." the intellisense shows the "RateServiceWebReference" so it has to know that it is there, but keeps throwing me an error.

Here is the code:

using System.Data;
using System.Configuration;
using System.Collections;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Security;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts;
using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;
using RateWebServiceClient.RateServiceWebReference;
using System.Web.Services.Protocols;
 
//namespace RateWebServiceClient
//{
    public partial class FedExSPS_FedEx_Package_Letter : System.Web.UI.Page
    {
        protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            RateRequest request = CreateRateRequest();
            RateService rateService = new RateService();
 
            ShowRateReply(reply);
        }
 
        private static void ShowRateReply(RateReply reply)
        {
            lblFedExResponse.Text = "RateReply details:<br/>";
 
            //Console.WriteLine("RateReply details:");
            foreach (RateReplyDetail rateDetail in reply.RateReplyDetails)
            {
                lblFedExResponse.Text += "ServiceType : " + rateDetail.ServiceType + "<br/>";
                lblFedExResponse.Text += "**********************************************************<br/>";
                                foreach (RatedShipmentDetail shipmentDetail in rateDetail.RatedShipmentDetails)
                {
                    lblFedExResponse.Text += "RateType : " + shipmentDetail.ShipmentRateDetail.RateType + "<br/>";
                                    }
            }
        }
    }

You have the following lines commented out in your code example
//namespace RateWebServiceClient
//{

If this is not a typo remove the comments and build your project again.

Thanks for the resonse...

With or without it commented out it pretty much gives me the same error with a different error number.

Here is the exact error I get when the namespace stuff is uncommented.
CS0234: The type or namespace name 'RateServiceWebReference' does not exist in the namespace 'RateWebServiceClient' (are you missing an assembly reference?)

If it helps I am trying to implement some class files and WSDL from FedEx to run rates on a webpage.

That's not the same error at all.

With the namespace declaration commented out you get an error saying there is no such namespace as 'RateWebServiceClient'. Which is true. If you comment out the namespace declaration, then the namespace doesn't exist.

With the namespace UNcommented, and thus it does exist, the compiler continues to the next error which is
'RateServiceWebReference' does not exist in the namespace 'RateWebServiceClient'

You have a using statement above the creation of your namespace that says...
using RateWebServiceClient.RateServiceWebReference;

But no where in your namespace of RateWebServiceClient do I see a definition for "RateServiceWebReference"

There is only one class of "FedExSPS_FedEx_Package_Letter"
with two methods.

So the error that there is no "RateSeviceWebReference" inside "RateWebServiceClient" is correct.

I followed what you posted for the most part, but am not sure what I need to do to fix it... Any ideas would be much appreciated.

I am the code I am trying to reference in the using is in a .cs file in App_Code. The file is directly from FedEx and huge so I attached it in case you need to check it out.

From what I can see the References.cs file really does have a namespace that you seem to be referencing:
RateWebServiceClient.RateServiceWebReference

But since you are getting an error that says this Namespace doesn't exist I can only think that you haven't properly added this file to your project, or to your project's references. When you browse the Class View pallet for your project you should be able to navigate all the way down to all the methods in this References.cs file. Are you seeing all of them, or just the ones you've created as part of the RateWebServiceClient namespace?

If you're not seeing the RateServiceWebReference or its method, then this file hasn't been added properly, or added to the references for the project properly.

I am not sure what the deal was, but after putting it on the live site it started to work fine. Thanks for the info.

Now that the rating portion is now working I am have nothing much issues getting the Shipment Creation portion to work. I am getting a similar error (CS0246: The type or namespace name 'ShipServiceWebReference' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)), but I have it done the same way the rating portion is done with the reference.cs files in the App_WebReferences folder.

If anyone has experience with the FedEx API/WSDL I would greatly appreciate a few hints.

Rocket I am woking with the FexexClient too... (OH MY GOD IS IT FUN BLAHHHHH) I am getting an error Error 23 The type or namespace name 'ProcessShipmentRequest' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) . How did you get past this error?
