The accessor for ElementMetadata can sometimes return null when
concurrently accessed.
This change solves this issue and simplified a bunch of lazy-computed
properties, by precomputing all type-related facets of ModelMetadata.
This also adds a ElementType property to ModelMetadata to maintain
the current separation of concerns as ModelMetadata is unaware of the
metadata provider.
- #2969
- add `ModelBindingMessages` for configuration and `IBindingMetadataProvider` overrides
- use `interface` to avoid `new` oddities when adding a setter to an `abstract` property
- add `IModelBindingMessages` to `ModelMetadata` for use in rest of the product code
- plumb the various bits through the system
- add integration tests using a custom `IBindingMetadataProvider`s to override messages
nits:
- remove unused resources
- use `AttemptedValue` and not `model` in `SimpleTypeModelBinder`
- #2992
- use new properties to replace common helper methods
- still a few `Nullable.GetUnderlyingType()` calls
- creating `ModelMetadata` or sites lacking `ModelMetadata` access e.g. `ModelBindingHelper.ConvertTo()`
some more tests.
This change reverts the behavior change from
a6ce9abab1 and adds more tests around the
scneario that was actually broken.
The right behavior is that unconvertable values result in a validation
error. There's no special behavior around value types and required values.
- Removed TaskHelper and refactored with ClosedGenericMatcher
- Removed TypeHelper
- Moved custom encodings to InputFormatter
- Moved ObjectToDictionary to PropertyHelper
- Removed respective tests and test projects
- #2664
- use new property to correctly determine `isTargetEnum` in `GetCurrentValues()`
- avoid `ArgumentNullException` in all cases where raw values are `enum` but target is not
- stop skipping tests blocked by #2664, exposing a couple more #1487 issues
- use new property instead of private `GetElementType()` methods where possible
- cleans up some duplicate code
- also remove redundant use of `IsCollectionType` and `ElementMetadata`
nits:
- move properties above methods in `ModelMetadata`
- avoid accidentally-incorrect "Remove Unnecessary Usings"
This is the first step is some more refactorings to come in the future
with the goal of making MVC less monolythic. This makes the core of MVC
more reusable and more in line with the design of other vNext platform
components.
With this change, Mvc.Core contains just the minimal guts needed to build
a working app.
- Action Discovery
- Action Invoker
- Filters
- ObjectResult
- Model Metadata
- Model Binding
- Formatters
- Validation System
And yes, we are aware of the irony of 'minimal MVC' not including the view
system. The idea is that this is the kernel of an MVC app, and anything
real is layered on top.
The most noticable impact of this change is that MvcOptions has been blown
apart into more managable chunks. See the various ConfigureMvc*** methods.
The new Mvc.Extensions package is a placeholder while we evaluate and tune
the new definitions. Expect more changes as features are move to their own
packages, and in some case their own repositories.
For now there is no experience to bootstrap an Mvc.Core app. That's coming
next.
