Question

I notice with the latest version of ASP.NET MVC that a View no longer defaults to having code-behind classes.

How do I go about adding a code-behind class now to a

Ok, I have verified the solution, here is something that you need to note:

CodeBehind="View.ascx.cs" Inherits="Project.Views.Shared.View"

In your case, you need to change "Project.Views.Shared.View" based on your namespace and classname, and in order to access the control in the code-behind, you have to manually add declaration in code-behind. In my case, I need to initialize the gigaSoft proEssential control:

public class gigaTest2 : ViewUserControl
{
    protected global::Gigasoft.ProEssentials.PegoWeb PegoWeb1;
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        // Set Titles 
        PegoWeb1.PeString.MainTitle = "Hello ASP.NET";
        PegoWeb1.PeString.SubTitle = "";

        // One simple way of passing data, data binding also possible. //' 
        PegoWeb1.PeData.Subsets = 1;
        PegoWeb1.PeData.Points = 6;
        PegoWeb1.PeData.Y[0, 0] = 10;
        PegoWeb1.PeData.Y[0, 1] = 30;
        PegoWeb1.PeData.Y[0, 2] = 20;
        PegoWeb1.PeData.Y[0, 3] = 40;
        PegoWeb1.PeData.Y[0, 4] = 30;
        PegoWeb1.PeData.Y[0, 5] = 50;

        // Set style of chart and a few other properties //' 
        PegoWeb1.PePlot.Method = Gigasoft.ProEssentials.Enums.GraphPlottingMethod.Bar;
        PegoWeb1.PePlot.Option.GradientBars = 8;
        PegoWeb1.PeFont.FontSize = Gigasoft.ProEssentials.Enums.FontSize.Large;
    }
