Upgrade from .net 4 to 4.5 breaks Html.Raw call in Javascript

Question

I have the following code in a c# MVC 3 razor page where I am passing serialized data into a javascript variable for KnockoutJs:

    @{   
        var listDa         


        

Answer 1

This issue still exist in Visual Studio 2013 SP 2

To fix this warning message initialize javascript variable first. IMO Visual studio think var as implicitly typed if any var followed by @.

        var ListData;
        var PagerData;
        ListData =  @(Html.Raw(listData));
        PagerData =  @(Html.Raw(pagerData));
