- #6648
- a different take on #4871
- `DateTime` can also round-trip `DateTimeKind.UTC` with `[DataType("datetimeoffset")]` or `[UIHint("datetimeoffset")]`
- since they're now handled differently by default, add more `DateTime` tests
- expand tests involving `Html5DateRenderingMode.CurrentCulture`
nits: make VS-suggested changes to files updated in this PR
- #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
- #5317
- previously worked only because `TagBuilder` cannot be empty and `HtmlString` overrides `ToString()`
- `TagBuilder.ToString()` (now the type's `FullName`) is also never empty
- copy `NullHtmlEncoder` from Razor and give it a better name (`PassThroughHtmlEncoder`)
- not available in this project and (from its namespace) not intended for general use
