I want to use ApplicationSettings in the markup code of an ASP.NET Web Application. Inspired by code behind this was my first try:

<%= My.Settings.MyApplicationSetting %>

No success.

I ended up with this lengthy statement

<%= Global.MyRootNameSpace.My.MySettings.Default.MyApplicationSetting %>

I can’t believe that this is the best solution. Isn’t it?
