c# - Razor view claims property doesn't exist while it does on model -

this model userviewmodel:

public class userviewmodel {     public int userid { get; set; }     public int groupid { get; set; }     public virtual group group { get; set; }     public string email { get; set; }     public virtual list<favorite> favorites { get; set; } } 

i wrote these lines in user view:

@foreach (var lessonitem in model.group.lessons) {     foreach (var favoriteitem in model.favorites)     {     } } 

and result this:

compiler error message: cs1061: 'moalem.ui.web.models.userviewmodel' not contain definition 'favorites' , no extension method 'favorites' accepting first argument of type 'moalem.ui.web.models.userviewmodel' found (are missing using directive or assembly reference?)

what wrong there?

your user view, did not show entirely, seems declare @ first line:

@model moalem.ui.web.models.userviewmodel 

you didn't show userviewmodel, guess has no property named favorites.

if show relevant code, perhaps more useful answers can given.

---

further questions according edit: @model on top of view say? namespace of userviewmodel posted? there other errors, project containing model compile successfully? unless you're doing really special (which aren't), compiler right. problem in code.
