Problem Inserting Report Viewer into WPF Application using WindowsformsHost - wpf

Question

I am trying to create a popup from my WPF application which shows a report viewer hosted in a WindowsFormsHost
however I am having problems with the following Xaml
<Page x:Class="FIS3.ReportViewer.ReportViewer"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:my="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Forms.Integration;assembly=WindowsFormsIntegration"
Title="MapViewer">
<Grid>
<my:WindowsFormsHost>
</my:WindowsFormsHost>
<Label Name="exampleText" Content="this is the Report Viewer ..." />
</Grid>
I am getting a build error notifying me that
"The type 'my:WindowsFormsHost' was not found. Verify that you are not missing an assembly reference and that all referenced assemblies have been built"
have I made an error in my XAML
I have added WindowsFormsIntegration as a reference to my project.
Thanks for your help

Answer 1

There is a second solution to this that people seem to have overlooked. I scratched my head on this one for a good 20 minutes. No solution, including this one, would work. Turns out the solution for me was to add:
WindowsFormsIntegration
to my references
after I realized that based on:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.integration.windowsformshost.aspx
that this uses the WindowsFormsIntegration.dll. It seemed to have been missing from my references.
Hope this helps!

According to the MSDN documentation, WindowsFormsHost is included in the default Xaml namespace ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation") - though you do need to reference WindowsFormsIntegration, as you have done. Have you tried referencing WindowsFormsHost with no namespace prefix?
<Page x:Class="FIS3.ReportViewer.ReportViewer"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
Title="MapViewer">
<Grid>
<WindowsFormsHost>
<WindowsFormsHost>
<Label Name="exampleText" Content="this is the Report Viewer ..." />
</Grid>
