Cannot cast from source type to destination type.

I'm having some troubles trying to initialize a variable always when I try to do it with the SfChart I get this error: "Cannot cast from source type to destination type."

This is my code: 

XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:syncfusion="clr-namespace:Syncfusion.SfChart.Android;assembly:Syncfusion.SfChart.Android"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent">
    <com.syncfusion.charts.SfChart    
        android:id="@+id/chartWeeklyResult"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:layout_weight="1">
</com.syncfusion.charts.SfChart>
</LinearLayout>

C#:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using Android.App;
using Android.Content;
using Android.OS;
using Android.Runtime;
using Android.Views;
using Android.Widget;
using Com.Syncfusion.Charts;
using Com.Syncfusion.Charts.Enums;
using Android.Graphics;

namespace Stop_Diabetes_Android
{
[Activity (Label = "Statistics")]
public class StatisticsActivity : Activity
{
private SfChart chartIn;

protected override void OnCreate (Bundle bundle)
{
base.OnCreate (bundle);
SetContentView(Resource.Layout.Statistics);

try{
chartIn = (SfChart) FindViewById (Resource.Id.chartWeeklyResult);

}
catch (Exception ex) {
}
}
}
}

I'd like to know if someone know how to fix it. Thanks for your worthy time and help.

Hi Federico,

Thanks for using Syncfusion products.

Please use the following code example to get the chart reference from layout.

Code Example [C#]

chartln = FindViewById<SfChart>(Resource.Id.chartWeeklyResult);
