I am interested to know what you guys feel should be deemed "correct behaviour" in terms of the UpdateModel method in ASP.NET MVC. The reason I ask here is perhaps if this functionality is "by design" somebody could clarify as to why it is the way it is, and perhaps a way to call it differently to achieve desired functionality, which I would imagine would be the way 90% of folk would want this to work? In essence, my gripe lies with the behaviour of the binding process within UpdateModel . Supposing you wish to update a form via a simple Save action method for which the data fields on the form

i have an application where i have a cascading dropdown, a simple dropdown and a submit commandButton. i wish to show report in datatable by selecting various criteria from the dropdowns. all works fine except when i wish to select the criteria from child dropdown. it doesnt bind with its value in the managed bean(found that by debugging). here's my code: xhtml: <h:outputText value="Exchange"/> <p:selectOneMenu style="width: 150px" value="#{reportBean.exchange}"> <f:selectItem itemLabel="--select--" itemValue="--select--"/> <f:selectItem itemLabel="NSE" itemValue="nse"/> <f:selectItem

def update @album = Album.find(params[:id]) if @album.update_attributes(params[:album]) redirect_to(:action=>'list') else render(:action=>'edit') end end A Rails 1.1.6 tutorial that I'm covering recommends using the update_attributes method for updating a model, as in the example code from my controller listed above. Looking at the Rails documentation I'm wondering why the update method would not have been preferred, especially since it is named so logically. Update takes an object id parameter and a set of attributes that otherwise work like update_attributes . So this (from AWDWR 3rd edition

Im stumped. I declare my set thusly: private Set<Long> applicationIds; Then I populate it like this: public void setApplicationIds( Set<Long> applicationIds ) { this.applicationIds = new TreeSet<Long>( applicationIds ); this.applications = null; } Then I attempt to use it: public List<Application> getApplications() { if ( applications == null ) { applications = new ArrayList<Application>(); if ( applicationIds != null ) { for ( Application application : availableApplications ) { if ( applicationIds.contains( Long.valueOf( application.getId() ) ) ) { applications.add( application ); } } } }

In my MVC application I used Entity Framework 6 and created database with code first approach. After a certain time, I updated one of the entity classes by adding new column and removing some columns. For reflecting these changes to the database I followed the steps below: Deleted the migrations folder in the project. Deleted the __MigrationHistory table in the database. Then run the following command in the Package Manager Console: Enable-Migrations -EnableAutomaticMigrations -Force Add the following lines in configuration file: AutomaticMigrationsEnabled = true;
