I tried making a Routed Event in a user control of an existing project and I'm getting the error message The event 'foo' is not a RoutedEvent.
To make sure I wasn't crazy, I made an example project with just the offending code (a Minimal, Complete, and Verifiable example").
Only I don't get any error message in my example project. But it's the exact same code!
Does anyone have any ideas what's going on?
Even with the error message, the project compiles and the RoutedEvent works!
I tried cleaning the project, rebuilding, restarting VS and my PC, but no matter what I do this error message persists.
I beleive this is just an IDE issue.
I'm using Microsoft Visual Studio Professional 2015 Version 14.0.25431.01 Update 3

RaiseEvent(new RoutedEventArgs(fooEvent, this));
}
public static readonly RoutedEvent fooEvent = EventManager.RegisterRoutedEvent(
"foo", RoutingStrategy.Direct, typeof(RoutedEventHandler), typeof(UserControl1));
// Provide CLR accessors for the event
public event RoutedEventHandler foo
{
add { AddHandler(fooEvent, value); }
remove { RemoveHandler(fooEvent, value); }
