im stuck with this very strange problem. i have an API Controller named AttendanceController derived from APIControllerFA which is inturn derived from ApiController here is the code public class AttendanceController : ApiControllerFA { public HttpResponseMessage PostAttendance([ModelBinder(typeof(AttendanceRegistrationModelBinder))]AttendanceRegistrationModel model) { //checking model state for errors //throw new Exception("Just to throw an error "); ........... As can be seen on the PostAttendance method i have a custom ModelBinder named AttendenceRegistrationModelBinder for which this is the

I'm creating a custom model binder for a view model, implementing IModelBinder I have a lot of properties in my view model, the majority of which do not need any custom binding. Rather than explicitly set all of the property values on my model individually from the ModelBindingContext , I would to be able to get the framework to bind the model for me, then I would carry out any custom binding: public class ApplicationViewModelBinder : IModelBinder { public Task BindModelAsync(ModelBindingContext bindingContext) { if (bindingContext == null) { throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof

I was under the impression that model binding in the ASP.Net Web API was supposed to support binding with the same minimum level of functionality supported by MVC. Take the following controller: public class WordsController : ApiController { private string[] _words = new [] { "apple", "ball", "cat", "dog" }; public IEnumerable<string> Get(SearchModel searchSearchModel) { return _words .Where(w => w.Contains(searchSearchModel.Search)) .Take(searchSearchModel.Max); } } public class SearchModel { public string Search { get; set; } public int Max { get; set; } } I'm requesting it with: http:/

I'm building a dynamic form creator in .net core. A "form" will consist of many different form elements. So the form model will look something like this: public class FormModel { public string FormName {get;set;} public List<IElements> Elements{get;set;} } I have classes for TextBoxElement , TextAreaElement , CheckBoxElement that all implement the IElemets interface. And I have EditorTemplates for each element. The code to render the form works great. Though posting the form does not work because of the List of Interfaces. I've been looking on how to implement a custom model binder, and seen

I started to play around with knockout.js and in doing so I used the FromJsonAttribute (created by Steve Sanderson). I ran into an issue with the custom attribute not performing model validation. I put together a simple example-- I know it looks like a lot of code-- but the basic issue is how to force the validation of the model within a custom model binder. using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations; namespace BindingExamples.Models { public class Widget { [Required] public string Name { get; set; } } } and here is my controller: using System; using System.Web.Mvc; using BindingExamples

We wrote a custom model binder that overrides the CreateModel method of the ComplexTypeModelBinder so that we can have injection into our ViewModels instead of having to pass the injected clients and repos to our model from the controller . For example, for a model like this: public class ThingViewModel { public ThingViewModel (IThingRepo thingRepo) {} } In our controller we can do: public class ThingController : Controller { public IActionResult Index(ThingViewModel model) => View(model); } And this works pretty well, here's the override part of the custom model binder : protected override

My Silverlight 4 app is hosted in ASP.NET MVC 2 web application. It works fine when I browse with Internet Explorer 8. However Google Chrome (version 5) cannot find ASP.NET controllers. Specifically, the following ASP.NET controller works both with Chrome and IE. //[OutputCache(NoStore = true, Duration = 0, VaryByParam = "None")] public ContentResult TestMe() { ContentResult result = new ContentResult(); XElement response = new XElement("SvrResponse", new XElement("Data", "my data")); result.Content = response.ToString(); return result; } If I uncomment [OutputCache] attribute then it works
