Syntax
public class MvcContextBuilderProvider : MvcContextBuilderProviderBase, IGetsRootContextBuilder
Remarks

This class adds a number of predefined global variables to the root of the TALES context, such that they are all available in ZPT views. Where possible, these mimic the same variables which would have been made available to Razor views. There are some small differences between MVC versions.

Some properties which would have been available to Razor views are excluded, especially where they are meaningless or do not make sense in the context of a ZPT view.

Note that the source for this class uses a number of 'compiler flags' (preprocessor directives) to cater for either MVC5 or MVC Core.
