- part I of II for #2445 (with a duplicate code PR to follow)
- needed for #2445 because new `ModelState` entries for values will make inconsisteny worse
- change `BodyModelBinder` to use same keys for all `ModelBindingResult`s and `ModelState` entries
- return fatal error result if formatter adds an error to `ModelState`
- update potential callers to avoid avoid ignoring `IsFatalError`
- fix test attempting to serialize all of `ModelState`
- will be borked with additional `RawValue`s in state
- fix two other tests that serialized `ModelState` but checked only `IsValid`
nits:
- address minor inconsistencies in `ModelBindingContext`
- use `System.Reflection.Extensions` package a bit more, where it's already referenced
- remove some unused resources
- #2456
- visible behaviours now match MVC 5
- prevent `CollectionModelBinder` from converting no value to `byte[0]`
- prevent `TypeConverterModelBinder` from converting empty value to `byte[] { '\0' }`
nit:
- remove additional delegates `ModelBindingTestHelper.GetOperationBindingContext()` calls
- a few left despite #2625 cleanup
Also ensures that when a type is marked as skipped, any sub property which is model bound (and hence a modelstate un validated entry),
is marked as skipped (otherwise it would cause the ModelState to be invalid).
Also fixing a bug in model state dictionary FindKeyWithPrefix was not considering [0] & [0][0] as a valid prefix.
This part of the change removes default value support from ModelBinding.
Updated some unit tests to verify that it does nothing in that case.
Deleted a functional test as it was pure duplication of another
(supported) case where the property has a pre-initialized value.
Add SerializerSettings to MvcOptions and pass those options to the JsonInputFormatter and JsonOutputFormatter.
Remove custom contract resolver.

This change introduces a new property to ModelMetadata called
IsBindingRequired, which specifies whether or not a model value must be
present on the wire during model binding.
[DataMember(IsRequired = true)] is currently the only thing that will set
this property.
Updated tests and documentation for clarity on the difference in meaning
between MM.IsRequired and MM.IsBindingRequired. Moved setting for
IsRequired to ValidationMetadata which is a better fit.
Also added functional tests for [BindingBehavior] and [DataMember] in
model binding because they were totally missing.
This change removes reflection from validator providers, and instead
relies on cached metadata in in the modelmetadata.
In general this means that our MVPs don't need to cache anything, they
just look at the metadata and create what they need.
In the case of data-annotations, we update the model details provider to
add validation attributes to the modelmetadata. This would allow someone
to replace the DataAnnotationsValidatorProvider, but still use the
metadata in these attributes.
The change to the IModelValidatorProvider api (to use a context) is
intended to minimize allocations. Currently each validator provider needs
to return a list so you end up with N+1 lists (N validators + a final list
to compine them all). This change will let us just create the final list
(and a small context object). This is a very very high traffic API so it
seemed worth doing.
There's also some general massaging of namespaces and file locations.
- #1865
- change `MutableObjectModelBinder` to ignore exact match in value providers
- had an incorrect assumption: don't want exact model name to match since
this binder supports only complex objects
- also ignored `BinderModelName`, value provider filtering, et cetera
- reduces over-binding e.g. `[Required]` validation within missing properties
also add more tests of #2129 scenarios
Separates the MMP into two phases:
1). Creation of the ModelMetadata, discovery of properties and attributes
(reflection) is part of the MMP
2). Lookup of details based on attributes is now part of another phase,
and has its results cached.
Users can now implements and register an IFooMetadataProvider to customize
a single aspect of metadata (see how data annotations does it).
This also fixes#1503.
Currently all model binders except mutable object binder are independent of validation code. The mutable object binder which needs to do some validation ( for scenarios involving [BindRequired] and [BindNever]).
We would be going with an approach where required validaiton happens in input formatters and model binders.
This is needed as validation for value types can best be done at creation time.
Followup PRs:
Introduce support for skipping validation (and not binding) for a particular property/type etc.
services
* Added WithControllersFromServiceProvider that replaces the default
controller activator with a service based one.
* Move activation to DefaultControllerFactory
* Modify [Activate] behavior so that it no longer activates services. Use
[FromService] attribute to hydrate services
Fixes#1707
- change `AdditionalValues` type to `IDictionary<object, object>`
- copy `ModelMetadata.AdditionalValues` in `AssociatedMetadataProvider` sub-classes
nits:
- add XML comments
- correct indentation in `CachedModelMetadata`
- #1758
- provide the property bag in `ModelMetadata`; seal it in `CachedModelMetadata`
- add unit tests
- include use of `AdditionalValues` in model binding functional test
nits:
- expose `AdditionalValues` as an `IDictionary` though MVC 5 uses `Dictionary`
- seal `ModelMetadata.Properties` collection as well
- cover a few properties previously missed in `CachedDataAnnotationsModelMetadataTest`
- correct two `ModelMetadataTest` method names
- #964
- compute `ModelMetadata.Order` based on `[Display]` attribute
- property affects e.g. `@Html.DisplayFor()` generation for complex objects
- also affects order of messages in validation summaries
- test new scenarios involving `ModelMetadata.Order`
- per-property `ModelMetadata` and related tests
- validation and `HtmlHelper` tests
- add `HtmlHelperValidationSummaryTest` (which touches on #453)
- update ModelBinding functional test to show use of `[Display(Order = x)]`
nits:
- move more `NullDisplayText` bits into proper slots (just above `Order`)
- add doc comments for `ComputeNullDisplayText()`
- add more assertions in tests using `ModelStateDictionary.HasReachedMaxErrors`
- remove some trailing whitespace
- avoid `Assert.True()` & `Assert.False()`; split some assertions up
- `""` -> `string.Empty` in affected test classes
- rename "DefaultEditorTemplatesTest~~s~~" class and file to follow guidelines
- rename "ModelBindingTest~~s~~" class and file to follow guidelines
FYI #1888 covers a predictable (or even just stable) order in the UI
