[Solved] Prometheus coexists with classic RadControls?

[Daniel Cai]

Hi,

I have an application which primarily use the classic RadGrid, RadTabStrip and RadWindow controls. However I recently discovered that RadGrid does not work with AJAX Control Toolkit extenders, so I tried to use the grid control in Q3 2007 Prometheus. When I added a Prometheus grid control to my webform, Visual Studio prompted me a confirmation message that Telerik.Web.UI.dll and Telerik.Web.UI.xml are going to be replaced. I clicked "Yes". Then my project is broken, I cannot compile the project, I got a number of errors such as: 

'GridDataItem' is an ambiguous reference between 'Telerik.WebControls.GridDataItem' and 'Telerik.Web.UI.GridDataItem'

 



'GridEditFormInsertItem' is an ambiguous reference between 'Telerik.WebControls.GridEditFormInsertItem' and 'Telerik.Web.UI.GridEditFormInsertItem'

Does this mean, that Prometheus controls cannot coexist with the classic telerik ASP.NET controls in the same project? Is there any easy way to migrate all classic controls to the corresponding Prometheus controls without huge rework? 

Thanks,
Daniel

Hi Vlad,

I have resolved the compilation error by prefixing those ambiguous members using "Telerik.WebControls" and "Telerik.Web.UI" accordingly. I am not sure if that is the best solution, but at least my project compiles now.

Thanks for your information,
Daniel
