Xamarin.Forms - InitializeComponent doesn't exist when creating a new page

Question

I\'m using Visual Studio to try out Xamarin.Forms. I\'m trying to follow the guide: http://developer.xamarin.com/guides/cross-platform/xamarin-forms/xaml-for-xamarin-forms/getti

Answer 1

• I had similar problem in Visual Studio 2013 update 4 environment and I tried all recommendations what I found on the web. Nothing solved my problem.
• Then I tried workaround approach. I installed Visual Studio 2015 preview and create new blank app with xamarin forms project.
• When I added new Xaml file everything was OK and issue with InitialComponent method disappeared.
• I don t know where exactly is the reason of the problem but it seems to be issue around configuration settings.
