sharepoint 2013 signalr

Question

Following program is based on the idea given by following post:

http://spmatt.wordpress.com/2012/04/12/harnessing-signalr-in-sharepoint/

Since Sharepoint 2013 is based on .NET 4, no further configuration is required to use the SignlaR

library. I tried to use Microsoft.AspNet.SignalR.Core version 1.0. The item added and item

edited event class was bind to the Project List. So whenever I created a new project item, it will

be automatically trigger the JavaScript in the web part as stated in the post stated above.

The item added event code is defined as follow:

public override void ItemAdded(SPItemEventProperties properties)
{
...
var connectionManager = GlobalHost.ConnectionManager;
var srContext = connectionManager.GetHubContext("messagehub");
srContext.Clients.Add.addMessage();
...
}

The messagehub class is defined as follow:

public class messagehub : Hub { 
    public void Send(string message)
    {
        // Call the addMessage method on all clients
        Clients.All.addMessage(message);
    } 
}

The messagehub is saved in the same package. When I added a new item in the project list,

the itemadded event will be triggered. Error comes up at the GetHubContext statement that said

that messagehub could not be resolved.

How could I resolve this issue?

I created a solution + sourcecode on codeplex http://spsignalr.codeplex.com - there is a working example for an EventReceiver, too.
