Class in App_Code not accessible by Global.asax.cs

app-codeasp.netglobal-asax

I've created a new class in App_Code

namespace Site {
    public class MyClass {
        public MyClass() {
        }
    }
}

this is my Global.asax.cs

namespace Site {
    public class Global : System.Web.HttpApplication {
        protected void Application_Start(object sender, EventArgs e) {
            *MyClass myClass = new MyClass();*
        }
    }
}

The error is in: MyClass myClass = new MyClass();

The type or namespace name 'MyClass' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

What am I missing here?

Finally found out what went wrong. I've set the Build Action of the cs file to Content instead of Compile
