Problem with recurring namespace-names

I have a class named AppVisum.Membership.Views.AppVisum.Membership.Controllers.Membership._Page_Views_AppVisum_Membership_Controllers_Membership_Validate_cshtml. Yeah, I know it is hidious, but I rather think it has to be named that, and as for the namespaces, those are unnecessary, but the class is genera开发者_如何学Goted by a tool, and the folder needs to be named AppVisum.Membership.Controllers.Membership, so I don't know if I can change the namespaces. However, hideous names isn't the real problem, the main issue is getting to the class AppVisum.Sys.AppSys. The ide tells me that it can't find AppVisum.Membership.Views.AppVisum.Sys.AppSys, so how can I tell it that I want the root one?

[Edit]

Sorry I wasn't specific enough as I thought this would be a simple problem to solve. The global:: would've worked perfectly if this had been a normal .cs file, however, it's a razor-file and razor don't quite like @using global::AppVisum.Sys (that just translates to using global, which doesn't make any sense). I've found 2 possible solutions, the first is to simply change the rule that search for files to search for folders with _ instead of .. Then I'd get paths like AppVisum.Membership.Views.AppVisum_Membership_Controllers_Membership._Page_Views_AppVisum_Membership_Controllers_Membership_Validate_cshtml. This would probably work just fine, and unless someone comes up with a better alternative I think I'm going for that. Another option is to rewrite the custom-tool that generates the classes (it's opensource, so I think I should be able to do that too fairly simply). Hope that clarifies things.

Add the global:: prefix to the namespace.

try:

using Sys = AppVisum.Sys;

or:

using AppSys = AppVisum.Sys.AppSys;

Basically, you can reduce ambiguity by aliasing types and namespaces in your using directives. (And the aliases don't need to be the same as the type/namespace names, they just are in my examples.)

As SLaks mentions in a comment, you should basically fix your project's default namespace - either that, or avoid creating the folder hierarchy. You've tagged this question with C#, but is your generated code actually in VB? While the VB compiler prepends the project's namespace when compiling, I don't believe the C# compiler does, so I'm surprised you're getting this namespace to be honest.

I disagree with your claim that "hideous names isn't the real problem" - I'd say it is the real problem, and making it hard to get at a particular namespace is one consequence of the problem. Fix the real problem (the bad namespaces) and the rest will go away. Using global:: etc is just a workaround, and one that you'll need to apply all over the place. It would be better to sort this out once and for all.

Basically if you can tell us more about how you've got into this situation, we're more likely to be able to help you get out of it.

maybe you can simplify by adding an using alias :

using AV = AppVisum.Membership.Views.AppVisum;

and in the code :

var s = new AV.Sys.AppSys();
