Get comparison list count in headerlinks.cshtml

Hi, I am using NopCommerce version 3.90.

I have added an <li> item to the headerlinks.cshtml file for the comparison list. i would like to include the number of items in the comparison list next to the text. e.g. "Comparison List (12)".

Has anyone figured out a way to do this?

Thanks

The following is a way of doing it.

@{
    var count = EngineContext.Current.Resolve<ICompareProductsService>.GetComparedProducts().Count;
}

<li>
<a href="@Url.RouteUrl("CompareProducts")"> Comparison List (@count) </a>
</li>

Hi RoastedBytes,

is this for version 3.90?

This doesn't work for me, it throws an error when i run it.

Thanks

What error are you getting?

This is the error that i get:
Compiler Error Message: CS0103: The name 'EngineContext' does not exist in the current context

thanks

Add the following lines at the top of the page

@using Nop.Core.Infrastructure
@using Nop.Services.Catalog

Hi,
Thanks for that, i still have an error.

In visual studio it says 'IEngine.Resolve<T>()' is a method, which is not valid in the given context

That's weird. Can you share the entire view file?

Sorry, but forgot to put brackets there

@{
    var count = EngineContext.Current.Resolve<ICompareProductsService>().GetComparedProducts().Count;
}

This should work.

This code works for me, But count refreshing only after reload page, while adding product to compare list from products home page
