Error On x:Name="ElementName" (Xamarin.Forms)

[matinfathi19]

I have a problem on set x:Name="Element1" For all Bit controls

everything is ok with this code below (Page.Xaml)

<bit:BitDateTimePicker   
    Culture="Fa"
    DateTimeDisplayFormat="dd MMM yyyy"
    FlowDirection="RightToLeft"
    CalendarSystem="{x:Static noda:CalendarSystem.PersianArithmetic}" />

But the build would fail on the following statement:

<bit:BitDateTimePicker   
    x:Name="Element1"
    Culture="Fa"
    DateTimeDisplayFormat="dd MMM yyyy"
    FlowDirection="RightToLeft"
    CalendarSystem="{x:Static noda:CalendarSystem.PersianArithmetic}" />

the following 2 errors appeared: 1- InitializeComponent() at the constructor of Page.cs 2- in Page.xaml

I want to set the property Name for the element to get the current value By "this.ElemntName.Text"

Any Idea?

I edited the issue's description in order to improve its clearness

It's an issue with XF itself. Please use regular usings in your xaml instead of xmlns:bit="https://bit..." Or better, use MVVM approach

MVVM approach Solved The Problem. What do you mean of 'regular using'?
