1) Implemented FilePathResult to efficiently return files from disk.
2) Implemented FileStreamResult to return content from a stream.
3) Implemented FileContentResult to return content from a byte array.
1. Added HttpNotFound() to Controller.
2. Updated HttpStatusCodeResult to expose the StatusCode as a property.
3. Added unit tests for HttpNotFound() and for HttpStatusCodeResult.
4. Updated the MvcSample to add an action that uses HttpNotFound().
5. Brought back HttpNotFoundResult and added unit tests for it.
- no more `IHtmlHelper<object>` in `DefaultDisplayTemplates` and also no
need for `ViewDataDictionary<object>` in a few places
- mostly removals from `IHtmlHelper<TModel>` but did cleanup comments and
add `[NotNull]` for `DisplayFor()`, `DisplayNameFor()`,
`DisplayNameForInnerType()`, and `LabelFor()`
- also add `[NotNull]` for `this` and `Expression` parameters in some
extension methods
- move `DynamicObject` derivation up to new `DynamicViewData` class, fixing [WebFx-169](http://projectk-tc:8080/browse/WEBFX-169)
- avoid direct `_data` lookup in previous `TryGetMember()`, fixing [#118](https://github.com/aspnet/WebFx/issues/118)
- rename ViewData -> ViewDataDictionary
Also
- flesh out `IDictionary<string, object>` implementation in `ViewData`
- provide `ViewData` copy constructor that allows TModel to change
- remove `TryGetIndex()` and `TrySetIndex()` implementations; use `ViewData[]` instead
- restore `ViewContext.ViewBag` from legacy MVC
Modified ModelState to only ever be created on the ActionContext and then plumbed/exposed it on ViewData and Controller. This will enable: ActionFilterContext's will have access to ModelState via its ActionContext member, allow HTMLHelpers to access ModelState via ViewData, and unify the locations of "source" model state. In the old world we used to copy/replace/instantiate new model state all over unnecessarily.
- demonstrate `ModelMetadata` is available in a view
Also
- simplify `View()` overloads in `Controller`, pending #110 decisions
- make `Model` in `RazorView<T>` readonly
and only use RouteValues (or generically just Dictionary<string, object>).
This is temporary and will change once we get Partials (which are currently just dead code)
For now this will unblock ViewComponents
- use Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc.Rendering namespace throughout assembly
Also
- move `IdAttributeDotReplacement` from `TagBuilder` to `HtmlHelper`
- remove commented-out code in `HtmlHelper`
- use `var` and `[NotNull]` more
- `String` -> `string`
- correct Resources references; add missing resources
This follows a similar pattern to html helpers - a minimal basis interface
that performs the main functionality, and a set of extension methods that
make up the rich API.
