How do I reference an ASP.net MasterPage from App_Code

Question

I\'m working on a .net 3.5 site, standard website project.

I\'ve written a custom page class in the sites App_Code folder (MyPage).

I also have a master page

Answer 1

I found some background to this, it happens because of the way things are built and referenced.

Everything in App_Code compiles into an assembly.

The rest, aspx files, code behind, masterpages etc, compile into another assemlby that references the App_Code one.

Hence the one way street.

And also why Ben's solution works. Thanks Ben.

Tis all clear to me now.
