- #3918
- don't repeat allocations for identical calls; helps w/ e.g. label / input / validation clusters
- add `NameAndIdProvider`; it stores `PreviousNameAndId` in `HttpContext.Items`
- `PreviousNameAndId` allocated only when `string`s are allocated e.g. "id"s were sanitized
- #3918
- lazy-load `TagBuilder.InnerHtml`; add `HasInnerHtml` property for conservative use
- depends on aspnet/HtmlAbstractions@0781b5a (adds `HtmlContentBuilder.Count`)
- don't use a `HtmlContentBuilder` at all in `DefaultHtmlGenerator.GenerateValidationSummary()`
- avoid instantiating `HtmlContentBuilder` when short-circuits make it unnecessary
- provide correct `HtmlContentBuilder` capacity where known
- #3918
- precompute size of `StringBuilder` in `ExpressionHelper`
- reduce `string` allocations in `ViewDataEvaluator`
- also get rid of `Enumeration` state machines
- reduce the size of a few objects; use more expression-valued properties
- e.g. don't store `_modelType` in `ModelExplorer`
- add `EmptyArray<TElement>`; make empty arrays consistently `static`
- avoid `string.Split()` in HTML and tag helpers
nits:
- make `ExpressionHelperTest` tests more stringent
- correct `Message` for an `ArgumentNullException`
- remove excess `using`s in classes I touched (but often ended up leaving otherwise unchanged)
- improve doc comments
- remove `ToString()` call on a `string`
- avoid encoding `string.Empty`
- fix test file name
- remove useless variables
- correct spelling
- improve whitespace
- #5028
- helpers similar to our HTML or tag helpers can use the new singleton to examine or add validation attributes
- in the most common case, helpers add validation attributes to a `TagBuilder`
- separate `DefaultValidationHtmlAttributeProvider` from `DefaultHtmlGenerator`
- avoids creating two instances of the `DefaultHtmlGenerator` singleton
- would be even uglier to require callers to cast an `IHtmlGenerator` to `ValidationHtmlAttributeProvider`
- `[Obsolete]` old `DefaultHtmlGenerator` constructor
- #5209
- update affected `HtmlHelperValiationSummaryTest` and functional tests
- add `ValidationSummaryTagHelperTest` tests to cover related scenarios
##### Behaviour changes when no errors exist for the model:
###### Tag helper
``` html
<div asp-validation-summary="ModelOnly" class="order"><h3>Oopsie<h3></div>
```
previously generated
``` html
<div class="order validation-summary-errors"><h3>Oopsie</h3><ul><li style="display:none"></li>
</ul></div>
```
and now generates
``` html
<div class="order"><h3>Oopsie</h3></div>
```
###### HTML helper
``` c#
@Html.ValidationSummary(excludePropertyErrors: true, message: "Oopsie")
```
previously generated
``` html
<div class=\"validation-summary-errors\"><span>Oopsie</span>
<ul><li style=\"display:none\"></li>
</ul></div>
```
and now generates nothing (`@HtmlString.Empty`).
Moves IControllerArgumentBinder and IControllerPropertyActivator into
.Internal. Also renames ControllerArgumentBinder ->
DefaultControllerArgumentBinder for consistency with other controller
extensibility types.
We don't think these are 100% baked for our long term maintenance of the
product, and want to reserve the ability to make changes in the future.
- #4339: remove non-recommended JSON formatter constructors
- affects `JsonInputFormatter`, `JsonOutputFormatter`, `JsonPatchInputFormatter`
- `JsonOutputFormatter` cleanup also impacts `JsonHelper`
- rename and make `SerializerSettingsProvider` class public; use it as appropriate
- #4409: make `SerializerSetings` properties get-only and `protected`
- affects `JsonInputFormatter`, `JsonOutputFormatter`
Recommended patterns:
- change `JsonSerializerSettings` values in `MvcJsonOptions` for almost all customizations
- find `JsonOutputFormatter` in `MvcOptions.OutputFormatters` when limiting per-result formatters
- start with `JsonSerializerSettingsProvider.CreateSerializerSettings()` when customizing a per-result formatter
- #4116
- generalize rules for `ModelMetadata` creation; minimize metadata changes when Model is updated
- down to a single special case in VDD for `Nullable<T>`
- note existing functional tests did not need to change
- remove `ViewDataDictionary(ViewDataDictionary, object)` constructor; use `new VDD<object>(source, model)`
- allow all `Model` assignments in a view component
- copy-constructed VDD in `ViewComponentContext` previously preserved the source's declared type
nits:
- do not call `virtual SetModel()` method from constructor; now mostly redundant
- logic in copy constructor and `SetModel()` is consistent but different enough to keep code separate
- add some missing doc comments
- fix doc comment property versus type confusion; never need to specify `ViewDataDictionary.` prefix
- fix a few `TemplateBuilder` comments and remove unnecessary `model: null` argument to VDD constructor
- remove duplicate `null` checks in `ViewDataDictionary` constructors
- correct a couple of code comments
- use a `public` constructor for `ViewDataDictionary` in `ViewExecutor`
- Simplify things that used to rely on HtmlTextWriter. This behavior is
now the default.
- Simplify a whole mess of Razor TextWriter code.
- Integration test for merging of TagHelper buffers back into the 'main'
buffer.
- standardize on the `Type` extension method; less verbiage
- `ModelMetadata` had a redundant `IsAssignableFrom()` call
- `ModelBindingHelper.ValidateBindingContext()` over-engineered and used just once
- do useful bit inline in `KeyValuePairModelBinder` but now a silent "does not apply" case
This change removes a layer of abstraction. These validators now just do
what they do now without creating a bunch of intermediate objects.
ModelClientValidationRule has been removed, and client validations
manipulate the attributes collection of a tag directly.
