What is the syntax for a strongly-typed ActionLink in MVC 4 with MVC 4 Futures?

Question

I am using a new MVC 4 Internet application template with Visual Studio 2012. I have installed the Nuget package for MVC 4 Futures. In my `_Layout.cshtml` I am building the navigation menu. This works and builds the correct URL: @Html.ActionLink("Customers", "Index", "Customers") This is what I would like to work, a strongly-typed variation: ``` @Html.ActionLink(c => c.Index(), "Customers", null) ``` It griefs on "Cannot choose method from method group. Did you mean to invoke a method?", but something tells me that's not the real issue. This compiles and outputs the right HTML, but not inline: ``` @{ var t = Html.ActionLink(c => c.Index(), "Customers"); Response.Write(t); } ``` How do you build strongly-typed Action/ActionLink's in MVC 4 using Razor's syntax (with or without Futures)?

Accepted Answer

```
@(Html.ActionLink<CustomersController>(x => x.Index(), "Customers"))
```
