Is there a way to Access Product Generic Atributes in a view ?

Hi

I have added a Generic Attribute to some products, but I am struggling to access the Generic attribute in a view.

I have no problem accessing  Generic Attributes in controllers, but I don't want  modify the core, i want to create a custom view and access the Generic Attributes form the view.

Is this possible?, and if so some sample code would be great.

Thanks

@using Nop.Services.Common;
@using Nop.Core.Infrastructure;

@{
    var genericAttributeService = EngineContext.Current.Resolve<IGenericAttributeService>();
    var attributes = genericAttributeService.GetAttributesForEntity(Model.ProductId, "Product");
}

Hi

Well in my case I wanted to display a youtube video on the product details page but not on all products, so I created a plugin that added a video tab in the admin section of the products where I could add the youtube url link in a product generic attribute.

Then when the product has a video I create a video tab on the product details page in the public store.

 var product = _productService.GetProductById(id);
 _genericAttributeService.SaveAttribute<string>(product, Constants.ProductVideoUrlAttribute, productVideoUrl);

This gives you a list of attributes related to that product. You need to further locate the actual attribute you want to get. :)
