- correct XML comment typo introduced in `HtmlHelper` in 56d66c090e (bad merge)
- fix missed `null` requirement for `@Html.RadioButtonFor()` and remove buried `null` check
- add back `Environment.Newline` to `@Html.TextArea()` (was dropped though comment wasn't)
- don't call other extension methods
- #847 line 7
- remove extension methods that do nothing but pass through to the interface method
- weren't exactly ambiguous (interface method wins) but were useless
- #874 lines 3, 4, and 6
- correct `Value()` to treat a `null` expression name the same as `string.Empty`
- add missing `[NotNull]` attributes in `EditorExtensions` and for `GenerateIdFromName()`
- consistently pass `null` for default expression names to the helpers
- for example, from extension methods
- add test cases using `null` for expression name
nits:
- correct summary XML comment for `HtmlHelper` class
- use named parameters and prefer interface (not extension) methods in changed calls
- use `string.Empty` instead of `""` in a few tests
- fix problems at least with Roslyn compiler and VS IntelliSense or the Object Browser
- `<see langref="keyword"/>` generates nothing
- `<example>` at top level (outside `<summary>`) generates nothing
- curly braces don't become angle brackets outside `<see cref="reference"/>` references
- yeah, a point @yishaigalatzer asked about in a previous PR
- `<see href="reference"/>` is not valid
- correct some invalid use of angle brackets and remove useless empty elements
- correct unresolved XML comment references; generally, add namespace prefix
Symptoms for some of the above issues included
- generated XML comments such as `<!-- Badly formed XML comment ... -->`, usually indicating an unclosed element
- generated XML attributes such as `cref="!:..."`, indicating a broken reference
- in a couple of cases we had `<typeparamref cref="TOption"/>`; attribute should be `"name"`
Few wording changes beyond
- `"opening </form> tag"` -> `"<form> start tag"`
- `"closing </form> tag"` -> `"</form> end tag"`
Also correct two typos in `HtmlHelper`
Will create a unit test to ensure XML syntax doesn't degrade going forward. Separate PR.
- for now, check using `dir -r *.xml | sls '!'`
