Compiler Error: Can't find 'Eval'

I just learned a new factoid:

If I copy a page and rename it, but don't rename the Class name, then the two pages will compile and run in DEV but not in TEST.

The error message was bizarre: couldn't find the Eval or Bind verbs.  When I fixed these, then it couldn't find the Title or MasterPageFile attributes.  This got me thinking.

The solution of course was to rename the second class name to something unique.

    I too have been caught out by this weird behaviour.

    Just remember when you copy a page to rename the code behind class.
