I have one Library with my ORM and am working with a MVC Application. I have a problem where the pages won't compile because the Views can't see the Model's properties (which are inherited from lower level base classes). They system throws a compile error saying that

'object' does not contain a definition for 'ID' and no extension method 'ID' accepting a first argument of type 'object' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

implying that the View is not seeing the model. In the Controller I have full access to the Model and have check the Inherits from portion of the view to validate the correct type is being passed.

Controller:

return View(new TeraViral_Blog());

View:

<%@ Page Title="" Language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/Views/Shared/Site.Master" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewPage<com.models.TeraViral_Blog>" %>

<asp:Content ID="Content1" ContentPlaceHolderID="TitleContent" runat="server">
 Index2
</asp:Content>

<asp:Content ID="Content2" ContentPlaceHolderID="MainContent" runat="server">

    <h2>Index2</h2>

    <fieldset>
        <legend>Fields</legend>
        <p>
            ID:
            <%= Html.Encode(Model.ID) %>
        </p>
    </fieldset>

</asp:Content>
