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"
