MvvmCross MvxHttpImageView error

Question

I'm trying to bind a web image in a listview on Android, using Xamarin.Android and mvvmcross. I'm getting this error though.

MvxBind:Error: 7.13 View type not found - Mvx.MvxHttpImageView Android.Views.InflateException: Binary XML file line #1: Error inflating class Mvx.MvxHttpImageView

This is my axml...

If you are using v3, then try

• MvxImageView instead of MvxHttpImageView
• ImageUrl instead of HttpImageUrl

The bound views are in https://github.com/slodge/MvvmCross/tree/v3/Cirrious/Cirrious.MvvmCross.Binding.Droid/Views

I think MvxImageView is also discussed in: http://slodge.blogspot.co.uk/2013/04/n2-lists-and-kittens-n1-days-of.html

You also need to include the MvvmCross File and DownloadCache Plugins, or else you'll get this error

"No IMvxImageHelper registered - you must provide an image helper before you can use a MvxImageView"
